Ingredients
- 8 cups popped popcorn
- 4 cups of chex rice cereal
- 2 cups pretzel twists
- 1 cup brown sugar packed
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter
- 1/4 cup light corn syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- Chopped Rolos
- chocolate chips
- M&Ms
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 300 degrees and lightly spray a large baking sheet.
- In a large bowl, add the popcorn, cereal, and pretzels. It’s best if you use a bowl with a lid so you can just shake it up for mixing. Mix everything together and set aside.
- In a small saucepan, add the brown sugar, butter, and corn syrup. Stir over medium heat until the mixture comes up to a boil.
- Once boiling, let the pan boil without stirring for 5 minutes.
- Remove from heat. Add the vanilla and baking soda. Mix it all together.
- Quickly pour the caramel mixture into the large popcorn bowl, close the lid and mix everything together. If you don’t have a lid just use a spatula and toss it together. Move quickly as the sauce will harden.
- Pour the snack mix onto your prepared baking sheet and place in the preheated oven. Bake for 15 minutes, toss everything around and then bake for another 15 minutes.
- Once done, spread it out over wax paper or parchment paper on the countertop until it’s cooled.
- Add in the chocolate candies after the mixture is cooled so they don’t melt everywhere. Toss everything together and serve! Store in an airtight container.
Notes
- 8 cups of popped popcorn equals about 3/4 of a full-size bag of microwave popcorn
