Everyone’s Favorite Puppy Chow
Its hard for me to fathom someone not liking puppy chow. Its pretty addicting. Coming from someone who’s favorite food is peanut butter, it is obvious that it would be on the top of my treat list. I love making different versions of puppy chow; however, this basic recipe is so good, and just so easy! Sometimes, actually most times, simple is best. My only addition to this basic chow is adding in a few crushed pretzels. It adds just the right amount of saltiness to balance out the sweet. If you don’t have any on hand, no worries. Just add in a tsp of salt to your chocolate peanut butter mixture and you’ll be good to go!

I think it's obvious that everyone loves puppy chow. Is basically perfect in everyday. The one thing I think makes it just a touch more perfect is adding a little salty bite to it. Pretzels are a perfect addition to your basic puppy chow to help tone down the sweetness from the powdery goodness.
