Pumpkin Puppy Chow
Three ingredients and so easy!
- 9 cups of rice chex
- 1 1/2 cups of powdered sugar
- 1 bag of pumpkin spice Hershey Kisses (I found them at Wal-Mart)
Directions
~Put the 1 1/2 cups of powdered sugar into a gallon size baggie.
~Dump the 9 cups of cereal into a large bowl.
~Using the boiler method (I don't own a boiler pot so I put some water in a regular pot and placed a metal bowl on top) melt the Hershey Kisses.
~Once they are melted, pour over the cereal and mix until all the cereal is covered. ( I didn't think it was enough to cover all that cereal but I promise if you keep mixing, it will be enough.)
~After the cereal is covered, pour it into the baggie that your sugar is in.
~Seal it and hand it over to your kids to mix up. Mine loved shaking the bag and getting the sugar all over the cereal.

YUMMY!
After that was made (in no time at all), we got the Ghost Treat Holders out and put the Puppy Chow in them. I wanted to make taking these to school as easy as I could for my daughter. So I had a few left over Halloween buckets, that have a handle on them, (from the Dollar Tree) and put them down inside that. I taped the Halloween poem on the outside of the bucket for her teachers to see.
I had Harper write her name on the little plate that goes under the pot :) |

Whether you use this idea or not, I hope you remember to show your child's teacher some love for all they do!
*If you don't have time to hunt down a white pot (I found ours at Wal-Mart) use a terra-cotta one (found at Michaels) and make a Jack-o-lantern face like we did on Day 23. Or you could even take the Puppy Chow or another treat to them on the Halloween Plate (found at Dollar Tree) we made.
