Lemon Bar Muddy Buddies

I normally post my Iron Craft projects on my other blog, Pursuit of Craft. But this one is a recipe, so here it is!

The Iron Craft challenge was to create something to do with picnics. I recently found a recipe for Lemon Bar Muddy Buddies, which got me so excited. They taste like lemon bars, but in the form of fun little bite-sized snacks. Toss a batch of these in a lunch basket with some sandwiches and water bottles and you've got the makings of a great picnic!



Lemon Bar Muddy Buddies
(from Lemon Tree Dwelling)
8 c. Rice Chex cereal (generic works fine!) 
1 c. white chocolate chips 
1/2 c. lemon curd 
1/4 c. butter 
1 1/2 c. powdered sugar

Melt white chocolate chips and butter in a small saucepan over medium heat, stirring constantly. (The melting won't be smooth - don't worry!)

Once melted, remove from heat and stir in lemon curd until smooth. Pour Rice Chex into a large paper bag (grocery size) and pour lemon mixture over cereal. Fold the bag to seal and shake to coat cereal. 

Add powdered sugar to paper bag and shake once more to coat.

Spread out on cookie sheet to cool; once completely cool, store at room temperature in airtight containers.



Yummy!

Hi Stephanie,

I'm so sorry you missed the Picnic Game. These Lemon Bar Muddy Buddies would be just perfect to bring on a picnic. Perhaps, next year:)

I am deliciously happy! Yummmmmm.....
Oh, how fine these Lemon Bar Muddy Buddies are!!!!

Thank-you sooooooooo much for sharing!!! I do love lemon and I do love Muddy Buddies!

These are so tasty and there really isn't words to fully describe how good they are!

I made a double batch so I could use all the lemon curd and chips! I added extra powdered sugar because I love extra powdered sugar! (I do that with regular Muddy Buddies too!)

I highly suggest everyone try this heavenly recipe if you are a lemon lover! Its soooooo good!
