Pink Valentine Muddy Buddies

"The ultimate Valentine's Day snack. My pink muddy buddies (aka puppy chow) recipe combines white and dark chocolate with pink candy-coated chocolates for a fun and festive no bake snack. While this recipe gives Valentine's vibes, I think the pink color is perfect for baby showers, birthdays, and even bridal showers. It is make-ahead friendly, and my guess is you can't stop at just one handful. Splitting the cereal into two batches means you get both a rich chocolate flavor on one and a sweet, creamy flavor on the other. It was a better balance and less overwhelmingly sugary. During testing, I learned that slow, gentle heat is non-negotiable. Chocolate that's rushed turns grainy fast. I also found that shaking each batch in separate bags keeps the colors crisp instead of muddled. A small detail that made the pink color pop."
