This is so different from any other Chex mix I've tried and so simple to prepare. A co-worker shared this recipe with us after bringing it to a get-together. We all agreed that it made a great holiday munchie. The dried cranberries gives it a festive touch while the orange juice provides a refreshing citrus flavor. Be sure to use concentrate....not juice! Ingredients:
3 cups corn chex |
3 cups rice chex |
3 cups wheat chex |
1 cup sliced almonds |
1/4 cup butter or 1/4 cup margarine, melted |
1/4 cup packed brown sugar |
1/4 cup frozen orange juice concentrate, thawed |
1/2 cup dried cranberries |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 300 degrees.
2. Mix cereals and almonds in a large bowl; set aside.
3. Microwave butter, brown sugar and orange juice*concentrate* in a 1 cup microwaveable measuring cup, uncovered, on high for 30 seconds; stir.
4. Pour butter mixture over cereal mixture; stirring until well coated.
5. Pour into a large roasting pan.
6. Bake uncovered for 30 minutes; stirring after 15 minutes.
7. Stir in cranberries; cool.
8. Store in an air-tight container or zip-lock bag.
