Sweet & Sticky Snack Mix
6 oz Caramel Reàl
3 cups Chex Mix
3 cups Popcorn
2 cups Cinnamon Toast Crunch
2 cups Mini Pretzels
½ tsp Sea Salt
2 tbps Unsalted Butter, Browned
Preheat the oven to 300°F and line a large, rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
Combine the Chex Mix, popcorn, Cinnamon Toast Crunch, pretzels, and salt in a large mixing bowl or directly on the baking sheet.
Brown the butter in a small saucepan. To brown the butter, stir constantly while on medium high heat. It will start to foam up and slowly turn a hazelnut color. Turn off the heat immediately once the butter changes color.
Add Caramel Reàl into the saucepan and mix until combined and slightly warm.
Drizzle the caramel and butter over the dry mix and fold gently with a rubber spatula until evenly coated.
Spread the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet in a thin, single layer.
Bake for about 20 minutes, stirring halfway through.
Turn the oven off and remove the snack mix from the oven. Check the crispiness of the mix by taking a small spoonful and placing it on a separate plate and letting it cool for 2 minutes. If it’s still soft, place back into the turned off oven for about another 10 minutes.
Once it reaches your desired level of crispiness, cool completely before breaking the mix into bite-sized clumps. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for 3-5 days.
Caramel Reàl delivers smooth, buttery caramel flavor in a convenient squeeze bottle designed for beverage and culinary professionals. Crafted for mixability and consistency, this premium rich caramel infused sauce enhances cocktails, coffee drinks, dessert beverages, and culinary creations with deep sweetness and rich caramel character.
