Method
 

How to Make Cookie Butter Muddy Buddies
  1. Melt the cookie butter and butter in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat for about 30 seconds, stirring halfway through, until smooth and creamy.
  2. Stir in the chocolate chips until the mixture is fully combined. Continue stirring until the chocolate chips are melted and the texture is silky, which should take about a minute.
  3. Pour the mixture over the rice cereal in a large bowl. Use a spatula to gently fold the cereal into the chocolatey mixture, ensuring every piece is well coated.
  4. Transfer the mixture to a large zip-top bag. This will make coating with powdered sugar a breeze, keeping your counters mess-free!
  5. Add the powdered sugar to the bag and seal it tightly. Shake the bag gently until all the pieces are evenly coated with a lovely layer of sweetness.
  6. Spread the mixture on a baking sheet to cool, ensuring it’s in a single layer so it can set properly. Allow it to cool for about 10 minutes for the best texture.
  7. Store in an airtight container at room temperature. Your Cookie Butter Muddy Buddies will stay fresh for several days—if they last that long!
