I'm just going to say it: this recipe will change your life.

It's one of those recipes that will make you think “yep, I can stick with keto long-term.”

You've probably figured out by now that this is a copycat recipe of those Chex Muddy Buddies that you see in the grocery story, or the homemade version your mom probably made growing up.  We called the homemade stuff Puppy Chow -it was only after I started high school that Chex came out with their bagged grocery store muddy buddies.

It seems so simple to make puppy chow the regular way, but since cereal, powdered sugar, and regular chocolate chips are no-gos on the keto diet, the recipe becomes a bit more challenging.

However, there are some amazing inspirational people on Instagram who inspire me with their recipes.  One of those came up with a recipe for Coconut Puffs, which I made according to the original recipe, but immediately thought they would work well for Puppy Chow.

I did modify the recipe a bit to make it crunchier and more cereal-like and then cut them smaller to be the correct size, but the original recipe for Coconut Puffs was genius all on it's own.
