When throwing a party, you'll want to include handfuls of these sweet bits and pieces. Made with bright fruit-flavored breakfast cereal, the munchies are a variation of ordinary caramel corn I thought would appeal at a gathering, explains Dorothy Smith of El Dorado, Arkansas. But you could also pack the mix into a tin as a gift. Ingredients:
7 cups trix cereal |
2/3 cup butter, cubed |
2/3 cup sugar |
1/4 cup light corn syrup |
2 teaspoons vanilla extract |
1/2 teaspoon baking soda |
Directions:
1. Place cereal in a large bowl. In a saucepan, combine the butter, sugar and corn syrup. Bring to a boil over medium heat; cook and stir for 5 minutes. Remove from the heat. Stir in vanilla and baking soda. Pour over cereal and stir to coat. Transfer to greased baking sheets. Bake at 300° for 25 minutes, stirring after 15 minutes. Break apart while warm. Cool completely. Store in an airtight container. Yield: 10 cups.
