Yep, it's that time of year again. I really, really love certain things this time of year. Today I made the first batch of Chex Mix (or what I lovingly refer to as "Christmas Crack"). The nickname comes from the fact that I can just eat and eat this stuff and it never fills me up. Because of that, I only make it if I have someone to give it away to. This week, it's work. We have our Christmas party on Wednesday, so I will bring both this and roasted butternut squash as my contributions.
Traditional Chex Mix (AKA "Christmas Crack")
- 4 1/2 cups Corn Chex
- 4 1/2 cups Rice Chex
- 1 cup Pretzel sticks
- 1 cup deluxe Mixed Nuts (no peanuts)
- 1 cup Cheerios
- 6 Tbsp butter
- 2 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1 1/2 tsp seasoned salt
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp onion powder
Preheat oven to 250. Mix together the cereal, pretzels, nuts and Cheerios. In a small microwave safe bowl, melt the butter for 1 minute on HIGH. Add the sauce and seasonings and mix well. Pour evenly over the cereal mixture and stir to coat as evenly as possible. Bake for 1 hour, stirring every 15 minutes. Spread on paper towels to cool. Store in sealed container.
