Move over Muddy Buddies, there’s a new kid on the block.
My love for desserts doesn’t end with just edible cookie dough! We’re always coming up with quick and easy recipes and we love to share them!
We love Muddy Buddies here but we needed something new to change it up and we came up with S’mores Chex!
You won’t need a pot for this one, just a microwave and a large baking sheet (so it’s easy to spread out the Chex).
Just microwave your jar of Lotus spread and coat the Chex.
Microwave your small jar of Fluff and coat.
Finally, melt your chocolate chips and coat.
These won’t need powdered sugar, just put them in the freezer for a bit to harden.
Super easy, so good and addictive! Enjoy!
S’Mores Crunch
Ingredients
- 1 box of Chex (any kind you like)
- 1 jar Lotus Spread
- 1 small jar Marshmallow Fluff
- 1 ½ cups chocolate chips
Instructions
- On a baking sheet, spread out the Chex.
- Melt the jar of lotus in the microwave for about 40 seconds, stir and then pour over the Chex. Mix to coat well.
Imp. Remember to remove the foil seal before microwaving.
- Melt the jar of marshmallow fluff in the microwave for about 40 seconds, stir and then pour over the coated Chex. Mix to coat well.
- Melt the chocolate chips, and coat the Chex. Mix well.
- Freeze the coated Chex for at least half an hour.
- Remove from freezer, break up into pieces and divide within resealable bags for convenient grabbing. Store in the refrigerator or freezer.
I would put the cereal into a big ziplock bag, pour the other ingredients directly onto the bag, close the bag and smush with my hands until throughly mixed. It’s easier to mix that way and you’re left with absolutely nothing to clean!
Did this!
1 box of Chex is 12 oz. or 18 oz.?
I’ve definitely done with either! The smaller box will result in a much more well coated batch, but either way is great! I use whatever I have in the pantry!
Any subs for lotus butter (not peanut butter please!) for out of towners? That’s not something we can buy here…
Try Nutella
For out of towners- Walmart has cookie butter that tastes like lotus butter! It is OU-D but I don’t think there is actual Dairy in it
It’s called “Great Value Speculoos Cookie Butter:”
That is so good to know! Thanks!
What if I don’t have a microwave?
You can heat the jars in a small pot of boiling water. Same with the chocolate in a ziplock!
Sounds yum! Anything I can use instead of lotus butter?
We LOVE lotus butter! Great recipe! Can’t wait to make this with my family! TY
Yum yum yum
Yum yum yum I agree
I made this recipe and can’t wait to use it for the smores Chex!
Homemade lotus butter (pareve/dairy options):
2 cup cookie crumbs (crush vanilla/sugar cookies/lotus cookies in a food processor)
put crumbs in a bowl, mix in the following (by hand)
2 Tablespoons melted margarine/butter
2 Tablespoons brown sugar
1/3 cup nondairy whip topping or creamer, defrosted/heavy cream
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon and/or nutmeg, to taste
This recipe doubles and triples easily!
It should keep nicely for up to 2 weeks in an airtight container in the fridge.
can the lotus butter be subsituded with peanut butter?
