Ingredients
Scale
Chocolate Peanut Butter Coating
- 1 cup Chocolate chips
- 1/4 cup Creamy peanut butter
Crunchy Mix
- 5 cups Chex cereal
- 2 cups Dry brownie mix
Additional Mix-Ins
- 6 ounces Caramel corn
- 4 ounces Chocolate Peanut Butter candy pieces
- 4 ounces Mini chocolate peanut butter cups

Instructions
- Melt the chocolate and peanut butter: In a small microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate chips and creamy peanut butter. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring after each, until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
- Coat the cereal: Place the Chex cereal in a large bowl. Pour the melted chocolate and peanut butter mixture over the cereal and gently stir until all the pieces are evenly coated.
- Toss with brownie mix: Transfer the coated cereal into a resealable plastic bag. Add the dry brownie mix to the bag and shake well to coat the cereal thoroughly. If necessary, do this in two batches to ensure even coverage.
- Combine all mix-ins: In a large bowl, add the coated cereal mixture along with the caramel corn, chocolate peanut butter candy pieces, mini chocolate peanut butter cups, and candy eyes. Toss gently to combine everything evenly without crushing the candies.
- Serve and enjoy: The Werewolf Chow is ready to eat immediately. Serve in a festive bowl for parties or Halloween treats.
Notes

- The brownie mix coating adds a rich chocolate flavor without baking—no cooking is required.
- You can store leftover Werewolf Chow in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days to maintain freshness.
- For a nut-free version, substitute peanut butter with sunflower seed butter.
