Ingredients for Strawberry Oreo Puppy Chow
- Rice Chex cereal
- Golden Oreo Cookies
- Powdered sugar
- Strawberry cake mix
- White chocolate chips or almond bark
How to Make Strawberry Oreo Puppy Chow
Grab 3 large mixing bowls. Add the rice chex cereal to one of the bowls.
Using a cutting board, coarsely chop about 20 Golden Oreos. Put half of them into the bowl with the cereal. Keep the rest of the chopped cookies set aside for later.
Next, melt the white chocolate in the microwave. Each microwave is different, but start with 20-30 seconds on high. Then stir. Continue at 15-20 second intervals until the chocolate is melted and smooth.
Be careful not to overcook. If desired, you can add a very small amount of butter or coconut oil to get the right consistency.
Pour the white chocolate over the cereal and cookie mixture. Combine it gently until all the cookie and cereal pieces are completely coated.
Now transfer half of this mixture to your other bowl.
Add the powdered sugar to one bowl and the strawberry cake mix to the other bowl. Gently stir until all of cereal and cookie pieces have a nice powdery coating.
Now grab the clean bowl and combine both mixtures together. Add in the remaining Oreo pieces and give it a final stir.
