Directions
Reindeer Snack, This is a fun make-ahead snack mix for the holidays Especially kid-friendly The dictionary doesn’t recognize Bugles, so the second ingredient should read Bugles nacho-cheese flavored corn snack mix , I was originally planning to make your Bailey’s Brownies, but I realized that DH and I were positively buried in leftover holiday sweets, so I opted for this savory recipe instead I’m really glad I did, because this stuff is addictive! I did have to make a few changes based on availability (and ability to fully open the recipe >:x ) used Quaker Whole Hearts for the Cheerios, and pretzel twists instead of sticks (same taste, just different shapes) I couldn’t locate any Bugles, so used a mix of corn Chex and queso fundido flavored Cheez-It Zings (the Chex for a similar Bugles crunch, the Zings because they sounded good) I had mixed all the crunchies together last night, but DH wanted to watch a movie, so I bagged it and decided to coat and bake it today When I went to check the recipe for seasoning amounts, I could only get the top half of the recipe to open, so I guessed 1 tsp of chili powder and 1/2 tsp garlic powder AFTER I finished baking it, the recipe decided to fully load, and I noticed that used double the seasoning I think I will make all future batches with screwed up seasoning, because it was delicious! Thanks for posting this keeper, and sorry I had to sub so much (I’m now on a mission to find Bugles for when this batch is gone, lol)! Made for Sweet December Tag 2014
