Ingredients
- 4 cups Corn Chex cereal

- 4 cups Wheat Chex cereal
- 2 cups Mini pretzels
- 2 cups Bagel chips
- 1.5 cups Mixed nuts
- 1 cup Butter
- 3 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1.5 teaspoons Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 2 teaspoons Seasoned salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Cayenne pepper (optional, for added heat)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 250°F (120°C).
In a large mixing bowl, combine the Corn Chex, Rice Chex, Wheat Chex, pretzels, bagel chips, and mixed nuts. Stir gently to evenly mix.
In a microwave-safe bowl or small saucepan, melt the butter until fully liquid.
To the melted butter, add Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, seasoned salt, and cayenne pepper (if using). Stir well to combine.
Pour the butter mixture gradually over the dry ingredients in the mixing bowl, tossing gently to coat everything evenly.
Transfer the coated mix into a large rimmed baking sheet or roasting pan, spreading it out in an even layer.
Bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour, stirring every 15 minutes to ensure even crisping and flavor distribution.
Remove the pan from the oven and allow the Chex Mix to cool completely on the baking sheet.
Once cooled, transfer the mix to an airtight container or serve immediately. Enjoy this addictive, crunchy snack with friends and family!
