Susan is sharing her Leprechaun Crunch recipe with us.
4 C Lucky Charms
2 C Corn Chex
1 1/2 C broken min-pretzels twists {about 65 twists}
1 C dry-roasted peanuts
1/2 C packed brown sugar
1/4 C butter
2 TBSP corn syrup
1/8 tsp baking soda
1/4 C green M&Ms
In a large microwavable bowl place the 2 cereals, pretzels and peanuts. Gently stir and set aside.
In 2-cup microwavable measuring cup, microwave brown sugar, butter and corn syrup uncovered on HIGH for 2 minutes, stirring after 1 minute, until melted and smooth. Remove from microwave and stir in baking soda until dissolved. Pour over cereal mixture - carefully stirring until evenly coated.
Microwave the entire bowl of cereal mixture uncovered in HIGH 2 minutes, stirring and scraping bowl every 30 seconds, until cereal begins to brown. Let cool in bowl for 3 minutes, then gently fold in candies. Spred onto waxed paper covered counter to cool.
Break into bite-sized pieces and ENJOY!
I'm off to the store this morning!
