Red Velvet Chex Muddy Recipe

My Red Velvet Chex Muddy Recipe is extremely easy to make. I grew up eating muddy buddies but I am always looking to reinvent things. So I took my favorite things and made a new version with red velvet cake mix and M&M candies. I brought some to a friend’s movie night, and it was a total hit. Everyone was asking for the recipe, and I had to fight to keep some for myself! It’s the perfect sweet treat for any occasion, and honestly, it’s just plain fun to make.
