    Delish!
    SHEENAP- butter helps improve the consistency of the chocolate, especially if you are doing this in the microwave.
    DENIMBLUE1955- maybe you shouldn't be looking for dog food recipes on a people-food website. let's hope people are smart enough to figure this out on their own. - 12/7/08

    I suggest using a blender to mix the liquids and once you have them all blended let sit for 30 seconds to a minute. - 12/29/17

    Instead of the chocolate chips I use nutella. I microwave the peanut butter, nutella and a little butter in the microwave until melted then pour over the cereal. I use a mixture of cereals usually chex, fiber one "twigs", and bran flakes. I only use 1/2 cup powdered sugar then refrigerate. - 6/3/12

    I had only rice chex (which is good with my blood type) and substituted Stevia in the Raw for powdered sugar, reduced the butter to 1/3 C, added cinnamon, and am pleased with the outome. Now to eat it in moderation... - 2/13/12

    Love Puppy Chow!
    Hate it when my daughter makes this stuff. I can't eat in moderation and I insist that she HIDE IT or I will nibble the whole bag away. - 11/3/09

    butter and vanilla are not needed in this recipe. all it adds is more calories and fat. its just as delicious without. - 10/15/08

    Please be sure to remind people that this IS NOT FOR DOGS because chocolate is toxic for canines. - 8/22/08
