Popcorn Pretzel Chunks Party Mix Recipe 425

Steps:

• Heat oven to 300°. Mix popcorn, pretzels and crackers in ungreased rectangular pan, 13x9x2 inches. Mix remaining ingredients; drizzle over popcorn mixture. Toss until evenly coated.
• Bake uncovered about 30 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes, until toasted. Store in airtight container at room temperature.

Steps:

• 1. Spray very large microwavable bowl with cooking spray. Mix cereal, popcorn and pretzel crackers in bowl. 2. In medium microwavable bowl, microwave marshmallow crème and butter uncovered on High about 1 minute, stirring after 30 seconds, until crème and butter are melted and can be stirred smooth. 3. Stir, pour over cereal mixture, stirring until evenly coated. Microwave uncovered on High 2 to 3 minutes, stirring every minute, until mixture is glazed. Cool 5 minutes; stir in candies. Spread on waxed paper to cool. Break into chunks. Store covered.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C).
• Place popcorn in a large pot with 2 tablespoons vegetable oil. Over a low heat, begin to pop the popcorn. Constantly shake the pot to ensure that the popcorn kernels and oil do not burn. Once the popping has slowed, remove the pot from heat.
• In a large saucepan, mix butter or margarine, brown sugar and corn syrup. Bring this mixture to a boil (over a medium heat) while stirring constantly. Reduce heat to medium-low and do not stir for 5 minutes. Remove the pan from heat and mix in baking powder and vanilla extract, stirring carefully.
• In a large baking pan, combine popcorn, pretzels, cereal and pecans. Pour the butter mixture over the popcorn mixture, stir to coat.
• Bake for 30 minutes, stirring the mixture after the first 15 minutes have elapsed.

Steps:

• Place the pretzels, popcorn and peanuts into a large paper bag or, if you have one, a very large bowl. Set aside.
• In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the brown sugar, corn syrup, and butter. Cook, stirring to melt the butter and dissolve the sugar, until the mixture comes to a boil. Once the mixture is at a full boil, continue to cook for 5 minutes, stirring constantly.
• Remove from the heat, and stir in the salt, vanilla, and baking soda. The mixture will foam up when you add the soda, so use a long spoon to stir. Immediately pour the sugar mixture over the popcorn and pretzels in the bag. Shake until evenly coated. For a crispier treat, boil the sugar mixture longer, or bake the finished mix in the oven at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for about 10 minutes.
