Chex Me Out
Caramel Chex Mix
When you have too much mixed nuts from the holidays and you don’t know what to do with them - make caramel chex mix! Ideal for snacking - these are so addicting, you’ve been warned!
Ingredients
3 cups Corn Check (plain one, it’s gluten free)
1 cup peanuts ( used Virginia salted peanuts)
1 cup mixed nuts + dried fruits (used Trader Joe's Bazaar Basket Snack Mix)
Mix all of the above in a big bowl. You can substitute for pretzels and any nuts of your choice!
Boil butter and brown sugar, keep stirring until they’ve blended together (~3 minutes) . In parallel, preheat over to 350 degrees.
1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup brown sugar
Pour the caramelized sugar+butter to the cereal mixture. Toss to coat.
Line baking pan with either greased foil OR parchment paper. Spread the cereal mixture on the pan. Bake it for 6 minutes.
Done! Let it cool and don’t be tempted to try if they’re fresh from the oven & still hot! (i know you will do it - these are way too yummy!!!)
