How to Make Caramel Snack Attack Mix
- In a medium saucepan, combine 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, 1 cup packed light brown sugar, and 1/2 cup Karo light corn syrup. Bring to a rolling boil over medium-high heat, stirring constantly.
- Boil for exactly 6 minutes without stirring, ensuring the mixture reaches a full rolling boil.
- While the caramel is boiling, combine 4 cups of your favorite cereal and pretzels in a large bowl. (Example: 1 cup Kix, 1 cup Cheerios, 1 cup Rice Krispies, 1 cup pretzels).
- Carefully pour the hot caramel mixture over the cereal and pretzel mixture. Stir vigorously until the cereal is evenly coated.
- Spread the mixture onto a large sheet of waxed paper to cool completely. Once cooled, break into bite-sized pieces.
- Store in an airtight container at room temperature or freeze for longer storage.
