Ingredients

▢ 8 cups Chex Cereal Corn, Rice, or Wheat
▢ 2 cups Snyder's of Hanover Cheddar Cheese Pretzel Pieces
▢ 2 cups Nacho Cheese Bugles
▢ 1/2 cup butter
▢ 4 tablespoons Ranch seasoning (or 2 packets)
▢ 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
▢ 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 250 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
In an extra large bowl, add Chex cereal, pretzel pieces, and Bugles.
In a medium bowl, melt the butter in the microwave. Whisk in the Ranch seasoning, Worcestershire sauce, and garlic powder. Pour this sauce over the Chex mix and stir until every piece is coated. It may take a few minutes of stirring for everything to be coated.
Spread out Chex mix evenly over the baking sheet and bake for 45 minutes, stirring every 15 minutes to prevent the bottom pieces from burning.
Allow to cool for 15 minutes before serving. Enjoy!

Notes

Storage: Store in air-tight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks or freeze for up to 3 months.

Helpful tips:

Use any combination of Chex mix you like- such as Corn, Rice, or Wheat.
Be sure to stir every 15 minutes to prevent the bottom pieces from burning. Add an additional 10 minutes of baking if any pieces seem wet. However, the Chex mix will dry and get crispier as it cools.
Allow the Chex mix to fully cool before storing so that it does not become soggy.
Use a rimmed baking sheet to prevent any pieces from falling to the bottom of the oven.
