It's approaching midnight, I needed something sweet to nibble on but apart from half a box of frosted flakes and some sweet sandwich fillers there was nothing to eat without cooking. Then I remembered puppy chow! This recipe is just a quick and easy 5 minute version and it fulfilled the requirement.

Ingredients

5 mins
1 serving
  1. 350 gramsfrosted flakes or other cereal
  2. 1 cupchocolate spread with or without other flavours
  3. 1 cuppeanut butter smooth or crunchy
  4. 1 1/2 cuppowdered sugar

Cooking Instructions

5 mins
  1. 1

    Put the spreads in a large plastic bowl and place in the microwave for 40 seconds. Remove and give it a good stir.

  2. 2

    Add your preferred flakes and stir by putting the spoon underneath the cereal and folding the choco mixture in whilst turning the bowl. Be patient, you want to get a good coating so continue to rotate and fold until you're satisfied it is thoroughly coated.

  3. 3

    Add 1 cup of powdered sugar and start tossing the mixture again using the folding technique.

  4. 4

    Now it's all a matter of personal preference - I like to add the sugar until the flakes separate to become individually coated but you might prefer larger clumps, so add the remaining sugar a little at a time and stir in well until you are satisfied with the mix.

  5. 5

    You can store this in an airtight container or a zip lock bag, but I shouldn't think it work be around for long! I like mine from the fridge as I think it adds to the flavour when chilled
