Lemon Puppy Chow, a delightful twist on the classic sweet and crunchy snack, combining the zesty flavors of lemon with powdered sugar-coated Chex cereal for a perfect balance of tartness and sweetness.

Ingredients

Cereal Mix:

  • 4 cups Chex rice or corn cereal

Lemon Coating:

  • 3/4 cup yellow candy melts
  • 2 teaspoons lemon zest
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice

Coating:

  • 1 cup powdered sugar

Instructions

  1. Prepare Coating: Place powdered sugar in a gallon-size freezer bag.
  2. Mix Cereal: Place cereal in a large bowl.
  3. Melt and Mix: Melt candy melts, lemon zest, and lemon juice in a microwave-safe bowl. Pour over cereal and mix.
  4. Coat in Sugar: Transfer coated cereal to the powdered sugar bag; shake to coat.
  5. Cool and Serve: Spread the mixture on a baking sheet to cool. Serve or store in an airtight container.

Notes

  • If you don’t have candy melts, you can substitute white chocolate chips with 1 tablespoon of coconut oil.
  • Store lemon puppy chow in an airtight container for up to 2 days to prevent sogginess.
  • Experiment with different citrus flavors like orange or lime for varied tastes.
