A yummy snack mix that I created for my husband because I couldn't find a mix that did not use corn syrup. This makes a smaller batch than most snack mixes out there. Ingredients:
1 teaspoon cinnamon |
1/3 cup butter |
1/2 cup brown sugar |
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla |
4 cups crispix cereal |
1 cup pretzel |
1 cup salted peanuts |
1 cup m&m's plain chocolate candy |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350°F.
2. Combine Crixpix, Cheerios, pretzels, and peanuts in a large bowl.
3. On the stove in a medium saucepan, melt the butter on low heat.
4. Add the brown sugar, vanilla, and cinnamon to the melted butter.
5. Cook until butter bubbles slightly.
6. Pour over the dry mixture and toss (or mix) so that everything is coated evenly.
7. Pour onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
8. Bake in oven for 8 minutes.
9. Stir mixture and then bake for another 8 minutes.
10. Remove from oven and spread out onto waxed paper.
11. Allow mixture to cool, stirring and breaking up pieces as necessary.
12. Once the mixture is cool, add the M&Ms.
