Notes

Nutrition values are an estimate. Also known as peppermint muddy buddies. Melt the almond bark in 30 second bursts and keep all water away from it. Shake the cereal while the coating is still wet so the sugar sticks. Spread in a single layer to set. Store airtight at room temperature for up to a week, or freeze for up to 2 months.
