~NOT General Mills~ Chex Mix

Store bought may be the quicker option - but I’m I die hard home-made kinda gal. A childhood friend’s mom made this recipe around the holidays & I devoured it every year. I’m finding myself whipping up a batch this fine Sunday afternoon, so I thought I’d share how easy it really is! 😉

**Also, homemade mix allows you to leave out any of the components you leave for the bottom of the bag, and add any additional snack-ies you enjoy.

Ingredients:

(for a small batch; double or triple as you please)

• 1/2 c. Butter (I prefer the stick version)

• 1 1/2 TBSP Worcestershire sauce

• 1 1/4 TSP Seasoned Salt (Lawry’s will do ;))
  

• 2 1/2 c. Corn Chex

• 2 1/2 c. Rice Chex

• 2 1/2 c. Wheat Chex

• 1 c. Peanuts (or nuts of your choice)

• 1 c. Pretzels (any shape will do)
  

(A few of my fav add-ins) - more pretzels

- rye chips

- chocolate chips or m&ms at the wayyy end (for melting purposes of course)

Process:

• Preheat oven to 250ºF. . .yep, that’s all it needs!
  

• Mix all your mix-ins (chex, pretz, nuts, whatever else you decide on, etc.) in a large bowl & give a good shake up
  

• Melt the butter completely in a small bowl

• Add Seasoned Salt & Worcestershire
  

• Evenly spread your mix on a large sheet pan

• Drizzle the butter mix over top

• Stir the mix a bit; without dropping any on the floor (my biggest challenge)
  

• POP that baby in for 1 hour - just be sure to give it a good stir/mix/toss every 15 minutes

• Let cool on paper towel for a bit and/or enjoy while warm 🤩

If you don’t eat it all in one sitting, be sure to store in an airtight container!
