Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups Corn Chex cereal
- 3 cups Rice Chex cereal
- 3 cups Wheat Chex cereal
- 2 cups Mini pretzels
- 1 cup Cheese crackers
- 1 cup Honey roasted peanuts
- 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Cayenne pepper
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 250°F (120°C).
In a large mixing bowl, combine the Corn Chex, Rice Chex, Wheat Chex, mini pretzels, cheese crackers, and honey roasted peanuts. Toss gently to mix.
In a small microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter in the microwave in 20-second intervals until fully melted.
Stir the Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper into the melted butter to create the seasoning mixture.
Slowly drizzle the seasoning mixture over the dry ingredients in the large bowl, tossing continuously with a large spoon or spatula to evenly coat everything.
Spread the coated mixture evenly onto two large baking sheets, ensuring the mix is in a single layer for even cooking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour, stirring every 15 minutes to ensure even toasting.
Remove from the oven and let the mix cool completely on the baking sheets. The mix will become crisp as it cools.
Once cooled, transfer the Chex Mix to an airtight container for storage or serve immediately!
