Gluten Free Pareve Muddy Buddies

This recipe is a delicious gluten-free twist on the classic muddy buddies snack. Made with crisp rice or corn cereal, coated in melted dairy-free chocolate and coconut oil, then tossed in powdered sugar, it’s the perfect balance of sweet, crunchy, and addictive.
Even with simple substitutions (like dairy-free chocolate chips or coconut oil), the result is a treat that works beautifully for Shabbos, holidays, or anytime you want a quick, crowd-pleasing snack.
Full disclosure: I added a little extra powdered sugar for the photo so they’d look more like the recipe pictures online.
