Ingredients
- 4 cups Chex cereal
- 2 cups mixed nuts
- 1 cup pretzels
- 1/2 cup butter, melted
- 1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
Instructions
- Prepare your slow cooker by lightly greasing the interior with non-stick cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the Chex cereal, mixed nuts, and pretzels. Gently mix the dry ingredients to distribute evenly.
- In a separate small bowl, whisk together the melted butter, Worcestershire sauce, and garlic powder until thoroughly combined.
- Pour the liquid mixture over the dry ingredients, stirring carefully to ensure all pieces are evenly coated.
- Transfer the entire mixture into the prepared slow cooker, spreading it out in an even layer.
- Cover the slow cooker and set to low heat. Cook for 2 hours, stirring every 30 minutes to prevent burning and ensure even toasting.
- After 2 hours, the mix should be golden brown and crisp. Turn off the slow cooker and spread the mixture on paper towels to cool and absorb excess oil.
- Once completely cooled, transfer to an airtight container. The snack mix will stay fresh for up to 1 week at room temperature.
