📝 Preparation Steps
1
Add the Chex cereals, mixed nuts, pretzels, and the mix-ins of your choice to a 6-quart slow cooker insert. Stir gently to combine. (Note: if your mixins are chocolate and can melt, hold off on adding those in until the very end).
Chex cereal (any combination of your choice)9 cupsmixed nuts1 cuppretzels2 cupmix-ins of your choice (cheese crackers, bagel chips, goldfish, M&M’s, etc)2 cups
2
In a separate microwave-safe bowl, add the stick of butter. Heat in 30-second intervals until completely melted. Alternatively, you can melt it over low-medium heat in a saucepan.
3
Add the Worcestershire sauce, seasoned salt, garlic powder, and onion powder to the melted butter and stir well to combine.
Worcestershire sauce2 tablespoonsseasoned salt2 teaspoons
4
Pour half of the melted butter mixture over the cereal and mixins, and toss well to coat. Add the remaining half of the butter mixture, and toss well until everything is evenly coated.
5
Place the lid on the slow cooker and cook on “low” for ⏱️ 3 hours, stirring every hour to encourage even browning.
6
Optional: Remove the lid for the final ⏱️ 60 minutes of cooking to reduce moisture and allow the snack mix to crisp up.
7
Once the cooking time is up, turn off the slow cooker and allow it to cool with the lid off until room temperature. Stir the mix several times to help heat escape.
8
After the Chex Mix is completely cooled, transfer to an airtight container. Add any meltable mix-ins (like M&M's, chocolate, etc) if desired.
9
Store at room temperature for 1-2 weeks, or package into jars for gifting.
