Cuisine: American
Serves: 12 servings
Ingredients
- 1 cup brownie brittle, crushed
- 2 cups rice cereal
- 1 cup salted caramel sauce
- 1 cup chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and make cleanup easier.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the crushed brownie brittle and rice cereal. Stir gently to mix them together evenly.
- In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the chocolate chips, stirring frequently until smooth and fully melted. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
- In a separate bowl, combine the salted caramel sauce with the melted chocolate. Stir until the two are well incorporated.
- Pour the chocolate and caramel mixture over the brownie brittle and rice cereal mixture. Use a spatula to gently fold everything together until all the pieces are evenly coated.
- Spread the mixture evenly onto the prepared baking sheet, ensuring it’s in a single layer for even baking.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes, or until the edges are slightly crispy. Keep an eye on it to avoid burning.
- Once baked, remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the brittle cool for about 10 minutes.
- While the brittle is cooling, prepare a large zip-top bag or a bowl for coating. Add the powdered sugar and sea salt to the bag or bowl.
- Once the brittle has cooled slightly, break it into bite-sized pieces and add them to the bag or bowl with the powdered sugar mixture.
- Seal the bag and shake it gently to coat all the pieces evenly with powdered sugar and sea salt. If using a bowl, gently toss the pieces until they are well coated.
- Transfer the salted caramel brownie brittle muddy buddies to a serving platter or an airtight container. Enjoy your delicious treat!
