Como fazer Caramel Crispex Mix
- Preheat your oven to 250°F (120°C).
- In a large bowl, combine 6 cups Crispix cereal (or Chex) and 1 cup pecan halves. Set aside.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, combine 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, 1 1/2 cups packed light brown sugar, and 1/2 cup light corn syrup.
- Microwave on high for 1 1/2 minutes, then stir.
- Continue microwaving in 30-second intervals, stirring after each, until the mixture comes to a rolling boil (about 2-3 minutes total).
- Remove from the microwave and immediately stir in 1 teaspoon baking soda and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. The mixture will foam up – be careful!
- Quickly pour the caramel mixture over the cereal and pecans in the large bowl. Stir gently but thoroughly to coat everything evenly.
- Spread the mixture in a single layer onto a large baking sheet.
- Bake for 1 hour at 250°F (120°C), stirring halfway through to ensure even baking and prevent sticking.
- Let the Caramel Crispex Mix cool completely on the baking sheet before breaking it into smaller pieces. This allows the caramel to fully set.
- Store in airtight containers or zip-top bags for up to 2 weeks (if it lasts that long!).
