AuthorHeather WallaceCategorysnacksDifficultyBeginnerEvery year my grandmother, mother and now myself make this Chex mix for Christmas.
It is a recipe that was handed down from my great-grandfather. We call it Scramble instead of Chex mix though.
Over the years I have made my own versions of it. The original recipe called for salad oil which I changed to butter. Usually, the recipe is doubled and tins are filled and gifted to friends and family as a little "goodie bag" to snack on. I remember many years my mother would fill tins with one side containing homemade fudge and the other half with the scramble and give them out as gifts.
It's not the holidays in my family without Scramble! My own little tradition is to watch "It's A Wonderful Life" while making it. So turn on your favorite Christmas movie and make up a batch this year!
Preheat oven to 250 degrees.
In a large roaster combine 3 cups Rice Chex cereal, 2 cups Wheat Chex, and 3 cups of Cheerios.
Next add 2 cups of mixed nuts, 2 cups pretzel twists, and 2 cups pretzel sticks.
Set aside.
In a small bowl or measuring cup whisk 3/4 cup melted butter (or 1 cup of canola oil), 1 tablespoon of garlic salt, 1 tablespoon seasoned salt, and 4 tablespoons of Worcestershire sauce.
Pour seasoned butter over cereal mixture and stir well for about 3 minutes making sure everything is well coated with butter.
Cover and bake for 2 hours, stirring well every 15 minutes.
Allow to cool overnight for best results.
