Twilight Saga: New Moon Wolf Kibble Recipe
New Moon Wolf Kibble - A snack worthy of the Pack!
When the DVD of Twilight released I threw a screening party for my fellow fans and friends who hadn’t made it to the theater or wanted another taste. With the release of the sequel, Twilight Saga: New Moon, I wanted to keep the tradition alive but had a difficult time finding ideas for party food.
There are plenty of Twilight and Vampire snacks out there like these great “bitten” cupcakes my pal Jaimie brought. They are easy to make too! You just bake up some white or yellow cake cupcakes, cut out a cone shape and spoon in cherry pie filling, then top and decorate with a toothpick and left over filling.
However, I wanted a Team Jacob snack since New Moon is really more about introducing the wolf pack than vampire lore. I Googled and found a disappointing array of generic ideas like serving TrailMix or paw-print cakes. One idea was not bad, making cookies in the shape of dog biscuits. I didn’t have a dog-bone cookie cutter handy so I decided to whip up a batch of Dog Food instead. I dubbed the treat Wolf Kibble and served it in inexpensive plastic dog food dishes much to the surprise and laughs of my guests. Here’s the recipe:
New Moon Wolf Kibble
1 12oz Box Golden Grahams Cereal
2c Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips
1c Creamy Peanutt Butter
1 Stick Butter or Margarine
2-4c Powdered Sugar
Large Ziplock Bag
In a microwave safe bowl melt the chips, PB, and butter. I nuked it for 2 minutes on high and that seemed about right. In another large bowl pour in the cereal then pour chocolate mixture over it and stir until evenly covered. Pour into large Zilpock bag, add the powdered sugar and shake vigerously until the cereal mixture is evenly coated and resembles dog food. I recomend doing half the batch at a time so there is plenty of room in the bag to get your shake on. Chill for at least an hour then serve in dog food dishes.
And just for a fun beverage I made these American Red Cross blood donation sleeves to disguise my juice offerings. I suggest Ocean Spray Cranberry, Cran-Apple and Cran-Cherry for blood effect without food coloring or HFCS. You’ll notice the Donation Station number is another tongue-in-cheek Twilight reference. Here is a copy of the graphic if you’d like to use it for your own party:
