Zubereitung von Chex Caramel Corn
- Preheat oven to 250°F (120°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, combine the Chex cereal, popcorn, and peanuts. Set aside.
- In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the butter, brown sugar, and corn syrup.
- Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring constantly, until the sugar is dissolved and the mixture is smooth.
- Reduce heat to low and simmer for 2 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
- Pour the caramel mixture over the cereal mixture and stir gently but thoroughly until all the pieces are evenly coated.
- Spread the caramel corn in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the caramel is set and slightly golden brown. Keep a close eye to prevent burning.
- Let the caramel corn cool completely on the baking sheet before breaking it into smaller pieces and storing in an airtight container. This prevents sticking.
