How to Make Scrabble

  1. Melt butter in a large, heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium heat.
  2. Stir in the corn syrup and brown sugar.
  3. Cook, stirring constantly, until the sugar is dissolved and the mixture is smooth.
  4. Bring to a rolling boil, stirring constantly.
  5. Once boiling, set a timer for 5 minutes. Boil without stirring for the full 5 minutes.
  6. Remove from heat. Stir in vanilla extract and baking soda (the mixture will foam up).
  7. In a large buttered roasting pan, combine the popped popcorn, cereal, and nuts.
  8. Pour the hot caramel mixture over the cereal mixture.
  9. Toss gently to coat evenly.
  10. Spread the mixture in a single layer in the prepared pan.
  11. Bake at 250°F (120°C) for 1 hour, stirring every 12 minutes to ensure even cooking and prevent burning.
  12. Let cool completely on a baking sheet or parchment paper-lined surface before breaking into clusters.
  13. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
