I can't remember where I got this recipe. I have had this recipe for a very long time. It is good to make ahead and take for traveling for snacks for the kids and also good to take to potlucks. Usually no leftovers of this! You can also substitute the Crispix with Chex or a store brand like these two.

Time 25m

Yield 1 batch, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 (12 ounce) box Crispix cereal
16 ounces nuts
1 cup small pretzels
2 cups brown sugar
1/2 cup white corn syrup
1 cup butter
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon vanilla

Steps:

  • 1. Put cereal; nuts and pretzels into large bowl.
  • 2. Melt butter in saucepan. Add brown sugar and corn syrup.
  • 3. Bring to a boil and let boil one minute.

  • 6. Put on baking pan sprayed with Pam.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients: Fresh corn syrup and butter will give your caramel crispix the best flavor.
  • Don't overcook the caramel: Cook the caramel until it reaches a temperature of 240°F (115°C). If you overcook it, it will become hard and brittle.
  • Add the cereal quickly: Once the caramel is ready, add the cereal quickly and stir to coat. If you wait too long, the caramel will start to harden and it will be difficult to mix the cereal in.
  • Press the mixture into a pan: Press the caramel crispix mixture into a greased 9x13 inch pan. This will help it to hold its shape when you cut it into bars.
  • Let the bars cool completely: Let the caramel crispix bars cool completely before cutting them into bars. This will help them to set and hold their shape.

Conclusion:

Caramel crispix is a delicious and easy-to-make treat that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. It's a great snack for parties, potlucks, or just a simple dessert. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a delicious batch of caramel crispix that will be sure to satisfy your sweet tooth.
