How to Make Irresistible Original Chex Party Mix
  1. Preheat Oven: Set your oven to 250°F (120°C) and line a large baking pan with parchment paper, ensuring an easy cleanup when it’s all done.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a big mixing bowl, combine the Chex cereal, pretzels, and mixed nuts, giving it a gentle toss to blend those crunchy textures together.
  3. Prepare Flavor Mixture: Melt the butter in a saucepan over low heat, then stir in the Worcestershire sauce and seasoning salt for a flavorful drizzling sauce.
  4. Combine Everything: Drizzle that warm buttery mixture over your dry ingredients, gently tossing to coat each piece evenly, making sure every bite is filled with flavor.
  5. Bake: Spread your mix onto the prepared baking pan and bake it for one hour, stirring every 15 minutes until it turns a lovely golden brown.
  6. Cool and Serve: Let your creation cool completely before serving it in bowls or festive containers, ready to share with loved ones.

Notes

Stir every 15 minutes while baking to ensure even cooking. Allow the mix to cool completely before storing to maintain its crunchiness. Store in an airtight container for freshness up to two weeks.
