Vegan White Chocolate Pumpkin Muddy Buddies
I remember seeing them at friends houses as a child, but still wasn’t quite sure as to what it really was. So for those who are also not familiar with this concept, I’m sure you’re asking yourself, ..what the heck is a muddy buddy? lol
Simply put, it’s a quick and easy cereal-based dessert that’s coated in chocolate and tossed in powdered sugar. It sounds very off-putting, overwhelmingly sweet, and just not my cup of tea. However, if you mix up the chocolate, throw in some spices it’s actually quite interesting!
What’s fab about this recipe, is everything! It’s quick, easy, affordable, can easily be made in bulk, crispy, crunchy, sweet, has notes of pumpkin, perfect for fall, & even great as a homemade gift!
If you love nostalgic eats or all things pumpkin, you’re going to love this new vegan White Chocolate Pumpkin Muddy Buddies!

After coating, are the treats sieved to remove excess chocolate or you dip one by one?
You don’t need to remove any excess chocolate as it will all be absorbed, but you can shake out the extra powdered sugar using a large strainer if desired. Let me know how it turns out!
