Halloween Puppy Chow



A FOOD POST! HOORAY!
Ok, so today we had play practice and I'd promised to bring snacks. I wanted to make something festive and delicious that everyone loves,
Puppy chow is a stand by at every activity in our town. It's at swim meets, bake sales... you name it and there WILL be puppy chow.
But THIS is some special puppy chow. I found it on a brilliant website called "Your Cup of Cake". She posts tons of delicious treats and this puppy chow did not disappoint. It is half white chocolate, and half semi-sweet chocolate. A made a double batch that filled 3 gallon zip-locks and it was gone before practice was even over!
ENJOY!

  1. Did you realize the ingredients are exactly the same for both the white and brown pieces? I don't think you meant to put "white" chocolate chips for the chocolate section. :)
