Ingredients:
- 6 cups of Crispix cereal
- 1½ cups of mixed nuts
- 2 cups of pretzels
- ½ cup of brown sugar
- ½ cup of butter
- ⅓ cup of light corn syrup
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
Instructions:
-
Prepare the Syrup Mixture: Begin by combining the brown sugar, butter, and light corn syrup in a medium saucepan. Place the saucepan over medium heat, stirring constantly until the mixture comes to a rolling boil. Once boiling, continue to cook for an additional 2 minutes, then remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract. Set the syrup mixture aside to cool slightly.
-
Prepare the Baking Sheets: While the syrup is cooling, preheat your oven to 250°F (120°C). Lightly grease one or two cookie sheets to prevent the snack mix from sticking.
-
Combine the Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the Crispix cereal, mixed nuts, and pretzels. Stir the ingredients together to ensure they are evenly distributed.
-
Add the Syrup: Drizzle the slightly cooled syrup mixture over the cereal, nuts, and pretzels. Gently toss the mixture with a spatula or large spoon, ensuring that the syrup evenly coats all the dry ingredients.
-
Bake the Snack Mix: Spread the syrup-coated mixture evenly across the prepared cookie sheets. Place the cookie sheets in the preheated oven and bake for 1 hour. Every 15 minutes, remove the sheets from the oven and stir the mixture to ensure even baking and coating.
-
Cool and Break Apart: After baking, remove the cookie sheets from the oven and allow the snack mix to cool completely. Once cooled, use your hands or a spatula to break the mixture into bite-sized pieces.
