I have had one of my kids in school since the beginning of August, now on Monday I have two more headed back to school. One of them happens to be my five year old who is starting kindergarten! You may find me in a corner somewhere on Monday till I can get a handle on this!
When I started to compile of list of things I wanted to make for the kids when they went back to school these fruity muddy buddies came to mind.
We had just bought one of their favorite cereals that now includes marshmallows and I had been on a muddy buddy, Candiquik trip so it was easy for me to figure out how to combined these!What, in my humble opinion, makes these a little extra special is the flavor! I added orange crème flavoring to them! The kids LOVED them!
Because we believe everything in moderation this only makes a small batch. Just enough for all of us to have about 1 serving.
The kids loved them and asked if I could make them for their lunch boxes as well for a “dessert!” I’m thinking that could definitely be arranged! ENJOY!
