- Hey guys, and welcome to another day of Vlogmas!
So, we are going to be making one
of our favorite Christmas treats which is.
- Muddy Buddies!
Otherwise known as
- [Together] puppy chow.
- [Brooklyn] But, we're not feeding it to our puppy.
- Yeah.
This is Ash, I don't know if you guys knew
that we got a new puppy or not
but this is Ash and yes we named
him Ash and his middle name is
Bear, so his full name is Ash Bear.
- Ash Bear!

- [Interviewer] What's his name, Paisley?
- Ash Bear McKnight.
- [Interviewer] That's his name?
- Mmhmm.
- [Interviewer] What's your name?
- Paisley Amani McKnight.
- [Interviewer] Paisley Amani.
- Jackson Sean McKnight
- [Interviewer] You got it.
- What's my name?
- Mindy.
I don't know your middle name.
- What's mine?
- [Mindy] They're busily at work.
- [Paisley] Olivia!
- [Mindy] Okay, what does it require?
- It requires, I like to double it
because I like lots of it, it's nine cups
of corn Chex Mix and nine cups of rice Chex Mix
and then you double up everything else.
And, the recipe, fun fact, on the back
of the boxes, so, if you
need a resassurance in what you're putting in.
(cheerful pop music)
- So, next we're putting in, technically, if
you're not doubling it it'd be one cup,
but since we're doubling we're doing two
cups of chocolate chips, and I always like
to add a little more because you can
never have too many chocolate chips.
Now that we have the chocolate chips
in the bowl, I'm gonna add one cup of
peanut butter, which, remember, that's
doubled, and then I'm going to add one
fourth cup of butter margarine so, double,
that would be one half cup, so I'm going to
put the margarine and the peanut butter,
together with the chocolate chips and then
melt it all in the microwave.
(bouncy piano music)
- That was close.
- See if it'll stay.
Skills, skills.
- I guess mom is not satisfied with the idea
of muddy buddies because she just made, well.
- It's not my fault, I just don't love muddy buddies.
I don't know, I'm one of the weirdos.
It's the peanut butter chocolate mix, I'm a purist.
I just like chocolate.
- Crazy.
(bouncy piano music)
And, now we microwave.
(bell chimes)
- [Bailey] What? Let me try.
That definitely worked, I think I just stepped on it.
- [Brooklyn] Good job, good job Bailey.
Nope, failed!
- One more try.
- [Brooklyn] K.
- This is the best part of the cookie right here.
Now that our concoction is mixed we
add one teaspoon of vanilla and then we are
good to go and we'll pour it on the Chex Mix.
(timer ringing)
- [Brooklyn] Mom's cookies are done.
- [Bailey] Mom, your cookies are done!
(cheery pop music)
- [Brooklyn] Now we mix!
Yeah, oh, look-ey look-ey, lookin' good.
- Okay, so recipe calls for one and a half cups
of powdered sugar, which means
we need about three cups of powdered sugar,
which is not nearly enough powdered
sugar, so I usually add about a
cup more because we like ours sugary.
- [Mindy] What are you doing?
- Putting the powdered sugar in the bag.
- Got two of them.
- Now we have to do the hardest
part, getting this in there.
- [Mindy] Some of you may be wondering
why we have plastic sheeting up.
Yes, that's beautiful, isn't it?
This would be why.
Yes, right after we moved in,
our refrigerator leaked, and
we now have hardwoods being torn out and replaced
as a result of the leakage so unfortunately
we are living on plywood that
actually needs to come out too.
- That's totally good.
Now you've got your bag of sugar, you
don't want it to spill, so the trick
is to zip it up as tight as you
can, hold the top and then shake.
So that way if it does explode,
you've got the majority of it in your fingers.
We had one explode one time and it was disastrous.
- Yeah, it got everywhere.
- [Mindy] Shake, shake, shake!
Shake, shake, shake!
- What a beautiful masterpiece.
Beautiful.
- [Mindy] Yummy.
- These muddy buddies are so good so
definitely try this recipe at home.
