JULIE'S EXTRA SPECIAL HOLIDAY CHEX MIX

Steps:

• Fry up the bacon until it's nice and crisp. Note: for those who've asked, 1 pound of bacon (in my experience) will yield between 1/3 to 1/2 cup of drippings. It depends on the bacon you use.
• Then place the cooked bacon in a container and reserve it for another use- it's the leftover drippings you're after!
• Pre-heat the oven to 250 degrees F.
• Melt the butter and bacon drippings together in a saucepan, then stir in the seasonings to make a nice, buttery mix.
• In a very large bowl, combine the mix ingredients.
• Gradually stir in the buttery seasoning mix until the dry mix is evenly coated.
• Spread on cookie sheets and bake for 1 hour, turning every 15 minutes.
• Spread on paper towels to cool.
• Store in airtight container.
• Makes about 14 cups Chex mix snack.
