Chex Mix

United States

5 c. stick pretzels
4 c. Cheerios

8 c. assorted Chex cereal (corn, wheat, rice)

3 c. mixed nuts

1 c. butter

4 T. Worcestershire sauce

1 t. liquid smoke
2 t. seasoning salt
½ t. garlic powder

In a large roasting pan combine pretzels, cereals, and nuts; set aside. Heat remaining ingredients in a small saucepan until butter melts. Drizzle over cereal mixture; stir gently to coat. Bake in a 300 degree (Fahrenheit) oven for 45 minutes, stirring every 15 minutes. Spread on a large piece of foil to cool. Store in an airtight container. Make 20 cups.

Recipe notes: This is a traditional snack food at holiday parties in the USA. My family always made a big batch so we would have plenty for both Thanksgiving and Christmas.
