Puppy Chow and Candy Bar Cake

Well I'd have to say my favorite kind of buffet would have to be a dessert buffet!
So here are a couple of my favorite treats.

This first one is a great movie treat. My sisters and I make this EVERY time we are all together. It used to be our "Are you Afraid of the Dark" treat growing up. Did anyone else used to watch that show on Nick at Night!? It was a good show! :)

Puppy Chow
1/4 cup margarine
1/2 cup peanut butter
1 cup chocolate chips
6 cups Crispix cereal (Chex will also work)
1 cup powdered sugar (you may need more)
Melt margarine, peanut butter, and choc. chips in the microwave in a large bowl (about a min). Stir until chips are melted. Carefully fold Crispix into the chocolate mixture until all the Crispix are coated. Place the powdered sugar into a brown paper grocery bag. Pour Crispix mixture on top of the powdered sugar in the bag. Shake until all Crispix are covered with powdered sugar.
**I don't use a paper bag. I put the powdered sugar and the mixture into a huge mixing bowl that has a lid and shake it up in there... you just have to be careful not to shake too hard or you'll just have crumbs!


And this next one is what Brian and I both have as our birthday cake! YUM!!!

Candy Bar Cake

1 box yellow cake mix
1 small box instant chocolate pudding mix
