CARAMEL CRISPIX SNACK MIX RECIPE

Steps:

• Place one paper bag inside the other and pour cereal, peanuts, and M&M candies into it.
• Add brown sugar, butter, Karo syrup and salt to a large saucepan. Boil for 1-1/2 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in the baking soda. Be careful because the mixture will foam up and be very hot. Pour into the paper bag over the cereal mixture.
• Roll the top of the bag down and shake to distribute the sugar mixture throughout the cereal mixture. Heat bag in the microwave on high for 1 minute. Remove and reshake. Return to the microwave for a total of 3 times.
• Spread out on rimmed cookie sheets to dry for a couple hours or overnight. Occasionally break up the mix. Store dried mix in an airtight container.

"CRACK SNACK" 4-INGREDIENT SNACK MIX

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325°F. Line an extra large baking sheet (or two smaller baking sheets) with foil and spray with cooking spray.
• Spread cereal and pecans on prepared baking sheets. Set aside.
• Mix butter and brown sugar in a saucepan over medium-high heat.
• Boil for two minutes, stirring constantly.
• Pour caramel mixture over cereal and nuts; toss to coat.
• Bake for 8 minutes. Remove from oven, stir, and bake for an additional 8 minutes.
• Allow to cool, breaking apart any large clumps with a wooden spoon or spatula.

CANDY COATED CRISPIX MIX

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil sprayed with cooking spray. Combine the Crispix cereal and peanuts in a very large bowl and set aside.
• Combine the butter, sugar, corn syrup, and salt in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, for 5 minutes.
• Add the baking soda and stir well. The mixture will foam up a bit. Immediately pour over the cereal and peanuts, stirring to evenly coat the cereal with the candy mixture. It's okay if not every piece gets coated. This step is to distribute the candy coating as evenly as possible, but you don't want to crush the cereal by stirring too much or too vigorously.
• Dump the coated cereal mixture onto the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 1 hour, using a spatula or large wooden spoon to turn the snack mix over every 15 minutes or so. The low heat keeps the candy coating soft and sticky and turning helps most of the cereal eventually get evenly coated, while also drying it out a bit.
• Remove from the oven and cool for 15 to 20 minutes until cool enough to add the M&M's without them melting. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to about 1 week.
