CARAMEL CRISPIX MIX W/ M&M'S
I got this recipe from a coworker, warning: it's highly addictive! It's a perfect combination of salty, sweet, and a little chocolate. I was a little hesitant about microwaving the mixture in a bag, but it turns out well. You could definitely add more M&M's if you'd like. I've made this for holidays and used festive M&M's (red/white/blue for the 4th of July, red/green for Christmas). Total cook time includes cooling.

Steps:
- IN A MICROWAVE BOWL ADD: 3/4 cup butter, 1 1/2 cups light brown sugar, 1/4 cup + 2 tbsp white syrup, and 1/2 tsp salt.
- Microwave for 2 minutes, stir.
- Repeat - microwave 2 minutes, stir.
- Add 1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda and 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla. Stir until light caramel look.
- IN A PAPER BAG ADD: box of Crispix, jar of peanuts and bag of pretzels (hint: I make this dry mix while I'm microwaving the caramel mix above).
- Pour caramel mix over dry mix, shake bag.
- Microwave 90 seconds, shake bag.
- Repeat - microwave 90 seconds, shake bag.
- Spread over wax paper to cool (hint: the more you spread, the less clumps you will have).
- When cool, add bag of M&M's.
- Store in a tightly covered/sealed container.
Tips:
- For a crispier mix, use stale Rice Krispies cereal.
- To make the caramel extra gooey, use a combination of light and dark corn syrup.
- If you don't have a candy thermometer, you can test the caramel by dropping a small amount into a glass of cold water. If the caramel hardens and forms a ball, it's ready.
- Be careful not to overcook the caramel, as it will become hard and brittle.
- Stir the caramel constantly while it's cooking to prevent it from burning.
- Add the cereal and nuts to the caramel mixture as soon as it's removed from the heat, so that the caramel doesn't have time to harden.
- Press the mixture firmly into a baking pan to help it hold its shape.
- Let the mixture cool completely before cutting it into bars.
