Ingredients
- 4 cups Chex cereal (mix of Rice and Corn)
- 2 cups Mini pretzel twists
- 2 cups Cheddar crackers
- 1 cup Salted peanuts (optional)
- 1 stick Butter
- 1 packet Ranch seasoning mix
- 0.5 teaspoons Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Onion powder
- 0.25 teaspoons Dried dill weed
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the Chex cereal, pretzels, cheddar crackers, and peanuts (if using). Set aside.
Step 2
In a small microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter by heating it in the microwave in 15-second increments until fully melted.
Step 3
Stir the ranch seasoning mix, garlic powder, onion powder, and dried dill weed into the melted butter until fully combined.
Step 4
Drizzle the seasoned butter mixture over the snack mix in the large bowl. Use a spatula or your hands to gently toss the mix until everything is evenly coated.
Step 5
Spread the snack mix out in a single layer on a large baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Step 6
Bake the snack mix at 300°F (150°C) for 5 minutes, just to set the flavors and create a slight crispness. Optional: skip baking for a quicker, softer version.
Step 7
Remove from the oven and let it cool completely before serving or storing. This helps the flavors meld together.
Step 8
Serve immediately or store in an airtight container for up to one week. Perfect for parties, game nights, or as an on-the-go snack!
