Tips for this Cinnamon Sugar Sweet and Salty Chex Mix recipe
This recipe makes a massive batch of snack mix. I have halved the recipe and the only change I needed to make is to the recipe amounts.
Nuts: I love to use cashews in this particular recipe, however there isn’t any reason you could not use a different nut. Unsalted walnuts, or peanuts pecans could work nicely. If you not like to use nuts, then simply utilize extra cereal instead.
Sugar: There is an array given for the total amount of sugar. The greater end will provide you a bite mix that is a bit more sweet than salty.
Cereal: don’t hesitate to modify the up cereal to match your tastes. As an instance, if you despise wheat-chex, simply use an equal quantity of rice chex or corn instead.
