Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients. Stale marshmallows or cereal will not produce the best results.
  • Don't overcook the mixture. The Chex mix should be gooey, not hard.
  • Be careful when adding the butter. If you add too much, the Chex mix will be greasy.
  • Let the Chex mix cool completely before storing it. This will help it to set and become gooey.
  • Store the Chex mix in an airtight container. This will help it to stay fresh for up to two weeks.

Gooey Chex mix is a delicious and easy-to-make snack that is perfect for any occasion.
