Ingredients

• 3 cups Chex cereal (any variety)
• 2 cups Mini pretzels
• 1 cup Salted peanuts
• 1 cup Corn chips
• 4 tablespoons Butter
• 1.5 tablespoons Light brown sugar
• 1.5 tablespoons Honey
• 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
• 0.5 teaspoons Garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoons Onion powder
• 0.25 teaspoons Paprika
• 0.125 teaspoons Cayenne pepper (optional, for spice)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the Chex cereal, mini pretzels, salted peanuts, and corn chips. Set aside.

Step 3

In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Once melted, stir in the brown sugar, honey, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and cayenne pepper (if using). Cook, stirring frequently, until the mixture is fully combined and slightly bubbly, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 4

Pour the butter mixture over the dry snack ingredients in the large mixing bowl. Gently toss everything together with a spatula until all the pieces are well-coated with the buttery mixture.

Step 5

Spread the coated snack mix evenly onto the prepared baking sheet, making sure it's in a single layer.

Step 6

Bake the snack mix in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway through to ensure even toasting.

Step 7

Remove the snack mix from the oven and allow it to cool completely on the baking sheet. The coating will crisp up as it cools.

Step 8

Once fully cooled, break up any large clumps and transfer the snack mix to an airtight container or serve immediately.
