Large, rimmed baking sheet
Parchment paper
Medium mixing bowl

Ingredients

3 cups corn cereal squares
2 cups bite-sized pretzels
2 cups rice cereal squares
1 cup crisp wheat cereal squares
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
2 tablespoon honey
1 teaspoon salt
2 cups miniature marshmallows
1 cup Reese’s Pieces
Optional: Waffle cones, for a fun serving option!

Instructions

Preheat oven to 300 °F. Line baking sheet with parchment paper.
Gently combine corn cereal, pretzels, cheese crackers, rice cereal, and wheat cereal on baking sheet.
In a medium bowl, whisk together melted butter, brown sugar, honey and salt until smooth.
Pour butter mixture over cereal mixture. Gently stir to thoroughly coat. Spread mixture into an even layer on pan.
Bake in preheated oven until mixture is golden brown and toasted, about 30 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes.
Allow to cool completely for about 30 minutes, stirring occasionally to break apart. Stir in marshmallows and Reese’s Pieces.
For fun, fill waffle cones with the snack mix to serve, if desired. Store in an airtight container.
