Our kids love helping their dad make the Chex Mix. Over the years, it’s become a favorite tradition – a tradition that makes the house smell delicious.
The scooping…the measuring…the pouring…the mixing…all perfect kitchen tasks for the kids or grandkids – well, until the hot butter gets involved anyway.
This recipe usually makes about 8 cups.
However, my hubby quadruples this recipe – also adding in handfuls of cashews, other nuts, a little extra garlic here and there.
