Yield 18

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 cups popped microwave popcorn
4 cups Corn Chex™ cereal
1 cup mixed nuts
1/2 cup butter or margarine, cut up
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
1/4 cup light corn syrup
1/2 cup white vanilla baking chips
1/2 cup sweetened dried cranberries

Steps:

  • In medium microwavable bowl, microwave baking chips uncovered on High 1 minute to 1 minute 30 seconds, stirring every 30 seconds, until melted and smooth. Add 3 cups of the cooled cereal mixture to melted chips; toss gently until evenly coated. Spread on waxed paper or foil. Cool about 30 minutes or until set.
