8 cups Chex cereal
1/4 cup butter
1/3 cup brown sugar
2 teaspoons maple extract
8 cups Chex cereal
1 cup honey-roasted cashews

1 package taco seasoning mix
8 cups Chex cereal

5 cups Chex cereal
4 cups plain popcorn
1 cup honey roasted peanuts
1/4 cup butter
6 teaspoons brown sugar
2 teaspoons light corn syrup (light in color)
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 250 degrees.

  • ------MapleNut-------.
  • Melt the butter, sugar, extract together.
  • Toss with remaining ingredients.

  • Cool on paper towels.
  • ------ConQueso-------.
  • Melt butter in a pan in the oven-stir in taco mix.

  • I think the reason some of these recipes call for melting in a roasting pan is to keep the dishes down.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients whenever possible. Fresh maple syrup, butter, and nuts will give your Chex mix the best flavor.
  • Don't overcrowd the baking sheet. If you do, the Chex mix will not roast evenly.
  • Stir the Chex mix frequently while it is roasting. This will help to ensure that it roasts evenly and doesn't burn.
  • Let the Chex mix cool completely before storing it. This will help to prevent it from becoming soggy.
  • Store the Chex mix in an airtight container in a cool, dry place. It will keep for up to 2 weeks.

Conclusion:

Maple roasted Chex mix is a delicious and easy-to-make snack that is perfect for any occasion. It is a great way to use up leftover Chex cereal, and it is also a fun and festive treat to share with friends and family. With its sweet and salty flavor, maple roasted Chex mix is sure to be a hit.
