Question

http://www.chexmix.com/Recipes/RecipeView.aspx?RecipeId=42494&CategoryId=343

i want to use Crispix cereal (half n half corn n rice) instead of the Chex...use Cheddar and plain Goldfish crackers instead of bagel chips... I'll still use nuts and pretzels.....and toss in M&Ms after its all done and sat overnight.

Would this work???

Answer 1

yea..just make it however uwant it..

Answer 2

Answer 3

yes!

Answer 4

All the substitutions sound great with the exception of the M&M's - I don't thing they would taste very good when combined with Worcestershire sauce & garlic powder.  Here's a yummy recipe that uses both Crispix & M&Ms.  We call it good stuff mix & it's addicting:

2 1/2 sticks butter

3/4 cup brown sugar

1 teaspoon baking soda

1 family size box Crispix (If i can't find, I use 1 & 1/2 boxes of the regular size)

1 can of cashew pieces (any nut can be substituted, but the cashews are the best)

1 bag (12 oz I think) M&Ms

While butter melts on low heat in small saucepan, empty cereal into a brown paper grocery bag & set aside.  Add sugar to melted butter & stir until sugar dissolves.  Add baking soda & stir.  Mixture will foam up.  Remove from heat & pour directly over cereal.  Close bag & shake to combine.  Microwave for 5 minutes, taking out after each minute to shake bag.  After microwaving complete, spread on waxed paper to cool.  Add cashews & M&Ms - enjoy!!

This stuff is so good, I can make it on a Saturday afternoon & it's gone by that night.  

Answer 5

Sure, it's just a party mix.  You can put in anything you want.  I like it with Cheerios and Shreddies myself.

Answer 6

Yeah- if that's what you want.

Answer 7

Sure!  Sounds good to me!  You may want to toss the cereal w/ the butter/worcestershire sauce, THEN add the goldfish, since they are already salted.
