I’m really sorry for doing this to you. No really, I am. Sort of I’m putting you in danger of the world’s most addicting snack. If you like cupcakes, you’ll like this. If you like white chocolate, you’ll like this. If you like sprinkles… holy moly batman… you will LOVE this. PS: this is NOT dog food. Puppy Chow aka Muddy Buddies.
