Teeny McMunn: My Recipe Box

I didn't make this and I'm not sure I will because I'd probably eat the whole thing. Or I might make it and put it in baggies to give away, if there is enough left over to do so.  I think one could use apple pie spice mix as well.

I'm thinking most anything could be added or subtracted. The Harvest Mix Candy is the candy corn, pumpkin candies that are so sweet, but taste good about this time of year.

INGREDIENTS:

4 c. Rice Chex cereal

3 c. mini pretzel twists

3 c. Bugles

1 c. dry roasted peanuts

½ Reese's candies

½ c. M & M candies

1 c. Harvest Mix Candy

Pumpkin Spice Coating

½ c. butter

½ c. brown sugar

2 tsp vanilla

3 Tbsp pumpkin spice

INSTRUCTIONS:

Preheat oven to 275 degrees. Prepare a baking sheet by lining with parchment papr or spraying with cooking spray

In a large mixing bowl, combine the cereal, pretzels, Bugles and peanuts.

In a microwave safe bowl, combine the butter and brown sugar. Place in the microwave and cool for one minute, stirring half way. Remove from the microwave and stir in the vanilla and pumpkin spice.

Pour the pumpkin spice mixture over the cereal and stir to evenly coat

Pour out into the prepared baking sheet and bake for 30 minutes, stirring after 15 minutes.

Remove from the oven and allow to cool. Place in a serving bowl and toss in the Reese's M & M's and Harvest Mix.

MY NOTES:

If I make it and I still might, I'll double the recipe. Might as well if you have to buy peanuts and pretzels. Personally, I'm not crazy for dry roasted peanuts. I'll use regular peanuts, which are salty, but salt and sweet go together.

ENJOY! 
