12 -
1/2 teaspoon meringue powder

Whole almonds

1/2 cup powdered sugar for icing

# Instructions:
01 -
Stir powdered sugar, meringue powder, and water together until the mixture isn't shiny anymore. Pour it into a bottle with a tip for squeezing. Design a stripe down the middle of the almonds, let it set for 5–10 minutes, and then draw the stitches. Wait until they're fully dry and firm.
02 -
Dump Chex into a big zip-top bag. Heat the green candy melts with oil and peanut butter until smooth. Pour it over the cereal, seal the bag, then shake until it's all coated. Add powdered sugar, close the bag again, and shake like crazy until everything's covered.
03 -
Put the cereal in a large plastic bag. Melt chocolate chips, peanut butter, and oil together until smooth. Pour the mixture over the cereal, zip the bag shut, and shake it up until the cereal's fully coated. Toss in powdered sugar and shake again until everything's covered evenly.
04 -
Mix the green and brown puppy chow in a bowl big enough to hold it all. Toss in some decorated almond footballs and M&Ms. Serve it fresh and enjoy.
# Notes:
01 -
It stays fresh for 2–3 days if you keep it sealed in a container.
02 -
If it gets too sticky, just add more powdered sugar.
