Spicy Chex Mix Recipes

DEVILISHLY SPICY CHEX MIX

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients. Preheat the oven to 250 F.
• In a large bowl, gently stir together the Chex cereal, Bugles, oyster crackers, peanuts, and pretzels.
• Add the butter to a measuring cup or another microwave-safe dish that is easy to pour from, and microwave until melted.
• Whisk the seasoned salt, garlic powder, onion powder, hot sauce, and cayenne pepper into the butter until it is completely combined.
• Gradually pour the butter mixture over the cereal mixture, stirring as you pour so that all of the cereal is completely coated.
• Spread the cereal onto a large ungreased rimmed baking sheet. Make sure it is spread out in one even layer. Place the baking sheet in the oven, and bake for 1 hour, stirring every 15 minutes to ensure all pieces get crispy.
• Allow the mixture to cool and then add the Flamin' Hot Cheetos. (Do not add at the beginning. They do not stay crispy when mixed with the butter mixture.)
• Serve right away or store in an airtight container. The mix will stay fresh for about a week.
