Ingredients

• 4 cups Corn Chex cereal
• 4 cups Rice Chex cereal
• 2 cups Pretzel twists
• 2 cups Cheddar crackers
• 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 0.25 cup Franks RedHot Sauce
• 1 packet Ranch seasoning mix
• 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Onion powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Celery seed (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 250°F (120°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or foil for easy cleanup.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the Corn Chex cereal, Rice Chex cereal, pretzel twists, and cheddar crackers. Toss gently to mix.

Step 3

In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the unsalted butter in the microwave in 20-30 second increments until fully melted.

Step 4

Whisk the Franks RedHot Sauce, ranch seasoning mix, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, and celery seed (if using) into the melted butter until well combined.

Step 5

Pour the sauce mixture evenly over the dry ingredients in the mixing bowl. Gently toss everything together with a rubber spatula or large spoon until all the pieces are evenly coated.

Step 6

Spread the coated mixture evenly onto the prepared baking sheet, making sure it is in a single layer to ensure even baking.

Step 7

Bake the mix in the preheated oven for 45 minutes, stirring every 15 minutes to ensure even toasting.

Step 8

Once baked, remove the Buffalo Chex Mix from the oven and let it cool completely on the baking sheet. The mix will crisp up as it cools.

Step 9

Transfer the cooled mix to an airtight container or serve immediately. Enjoy the bold Buffalo flavor!
