Pumpkin Spice Puppy Chow is Here

This article is written by a student writer from the Spoon University at U Mich chapter.

Yeah yeah, you are just “so sick of pumpkin spice everything,” I’ve heard it time and time again. But in the midst of all of that autumn angst, you obviously still have a little bit of a soft spot for fall’s most popular trend, because you’re here, aren’t you? 😉

Well I wouldn’t have made this trendy/clichĂ© recipe unless it was a good one, and trust me, no disappointment was had by the time it was ready.

It’s never a good sign when my roommates and I devour and entire batch of something in the course of a day (like we did with this puppy chow), but at least that’s how I know that a recipe is a keeper (and I mean there ARE six of us
)

So whip up this festive autumn treat to pacify the pumpkin spice believers and satisfy the skeptics. Everyone is sure to gather ’round the bowl of goodies and start singing sweet October melodies, because its finally fall y’all!
