Chex and Chocolate Party Mix
June 29, 2011
With the 4th of July holiday weekend coming up, it's time for a good party recipe. Chex mixes are always good for munching. This version is sweetened and has chocolate chips added.
As far as I am concerned the coconut, peanuts, and raisins are all optional. The chocolate is required. Modify the recipe to fit your tastes.
| Chex and Chocolate Party Mix • 9 cups your favorite Chex® brand cereals • 2 cups shredded coconut, optional • 1 cup peanuts • 1 cup packed light brown sugar • 1/2 cup butter • 1/2 cup light corn syrup • 1 teaspoon vanilla • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda • 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate morsels • 1 1/2 cups raisins Preheat oven to 250°. Combine cereal, coconut, and peanuts in large, small roasting pan. In small saucepan over medium heat, heat brown sugar, butter and corn syrup to boiling, stirring. Then boil for 5 minutes without additional stirring. Stir in vanilla and baking soda. Pour over cereal mixture, stirring until evenly coated. Bake 1 hour, stirring every 15 minutes. Cool, stirring frequently. Stir in chocolate morsels and raisins. Store in an airtight container. |
Enjoy!
