Chicago Style Cashew Crunch

March 15, 2013

Chex cereal, combined with corn puffs and cashews get a thorough drenching of caramel to make a crispy crunchy snack inspired by Garrett Popcorn in Chicago.

2 cups Corn Chex cereal

1 cup cheese-flavored crackers ( I use Pepperidge Farm Goldfish Flavor Blasted)

3 cups cheese-flavored corn puffs

1 cup roasted salted cashew halves

1/2 cup firmly packed brown sugar

1/2 cup light corn syrup

6 tablespoons butter

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

Preheat oven to 250? F. Combine cereal, crackers, corn puffs and cashews in a 9x13-inch pan. Place brown sugar, corn syrup and butter in a medium microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on high for one minute....
