Ingredients
Directions
- Set the oven to 250°F and line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, stir together the Chex cereal, Bugles, and pretzels.
- In a small bowl, whisk the melted butter, brown sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and slightly runny.
- Slowly drizzle the butter mixture over the cereal mixture while tossing to coat evenly.
- Spread the coated mixture in an even layer on the prepared cookie sheet. Bake for 30 minutes, stirring once halfway through. Let cool completely on the sheet.
- Transfer the cooled mix to an extra large bowl. Add the Reese's Pieces, candy corn, candy pumpkins, mint M&M's, and candy eyeballs. Toss everything together and serve.
