Once this sweet-and-salty treat is completely cool, divide it into 1/2-cup portions, and store it in snack-size zip-top plastic bags. This offers portion control and a prepackaged on-the-go snack in one easy step. Ingredients:
4 cups crispy corn-cereal squares (such as corn chex) or criss-cross of corn and rice cereal (such as crispix) |
3 cups tiny pretzel twists |
3 cups honey-flavored bear-shaped graham crackers |
1/2 cup pecan pieces |
cooking spray |
3/4 cup firmly packed light brown sugar |
6 tablespoons light-colored corn syrup |
3 tablespoons light stick butter |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 250°.
2. Combine first 4 ingredients in a foil-lined roasting pan coated with cooking spray.
3. Combine brown sugar, corn syrup, and butter in a small saucepan; cook over medium heat 2 minutes or until sugar and butter melt, stirring constantly. Remove from heat; stir in vanilla and salt. Immediately pour syrup mixture evenly over cereal mixture, tossing quickly to coat well.
4. Bake at 250° for 1 hour, stirring every 15 minutes. Spread warm snack mix in a single layer on wax paper to cool. Break cooled snack mix apart. Store in an airtight container.
