Ingredients

3 cups Chex cereal (corn or rice)

1 cup pretzel sticks

1 cup popcorn (popped)

1 cup mixed nuts (salted)

1/2 cup Buffalo wing sauce

1/4 cup unsalted butter (melted)

2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon onion powder

1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika

1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional, for extra heat)

Salt to taste

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 250°F (120°C).

In a large mixing bowl, combine the Chex cereal, pretzel sticks, popcorn, and mixed nuts. Set aside.

In a separate small bowl, whisk together the Buffalo wing sauce, melted butter, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, cayenne pepper, and salt until well combined.

Pour the sauce mixture over the dry ingredients in the large bowl. Gently stir until everything is evenly coated.

Spread the mixture onto a large baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Bake in the preheated oven for about 30-40 minutes, stirring every 10-15 minutes to ensure even toasting.

Remove from the oven once the mix is crunchy and fragrant. Allow it to cool completely on the baking sheet before transferring to a serving bowl.
