How to Make Chai Crunch

  1. Preheat oven to 300°F (150°C).
  2. In a 1-quart saucepan, melt 1/2 cup (1 stick) of butter over medium heat.
  3. Remove from heat and stir in 1/4 cup honey, 1/2 cup dry milk powder, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon ground cardamom, 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger, 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves, a pinch of ground nutmeg, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until well combined.
  4. In a 15x11 inch roasting pan, combine 6 cups of your favorite cereal (e.g., Cheerios, Rice Krispies).
  5. Pour the butter mixture evenly over the cereal.
  6. Toss gently to coat all the cereal pieces thoroughly.
  7. Bake at 300°F (150°C) for 45-60 minutes, or until golden brown, stirring every 15 minutes to ensure even baking.
  8. Pour the mixture onto a large sheet of waxed paper or paper towels to cool.
  9. Let cool for 15 minutes before serving. Break into clusters.
  10. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
