Tips:

  • Use a large bowl to mix the ingredients, as the Chex Mix will expand as it bakes.
  • Be sure to coat the Chex Mix evenly with the butter and Worcestershire sauce mixture, as this will help it to brown and crisp in the oven.
  • If you don't have a baking sheet, you can use a large roasting pan or even a cookie sheet.
  • Be sure to watch the Chex Mix closely while it is baking, as it can burn easily.
  • Once the Chex Mix is done baking, let it cool completely before storing it. This will help it to keep its crunch.
