Wonderful recipe! I added M&Ms (mainly for color)after it cooled. It's a keeper!

This was so good! I added cheerios, pretzels, and honey roasted peanuts when baking in the oven and then added m&m like other reviews after it cooled. This definately had a lot of glaze even with the added ingredients. Maybe next time I will add less butter and maybe even more dry ingredients so it isn't too sweet. Thanks!

I made this for a birthday party as well and this mix was a huge hit! I added honey roasted peanuts, cashews, Cheerios, and M&M's--once it cooled enough. I also used a disposable roasting pan and sprayed olive oil on the wax paper like someone else suggested. Very easy clean up for me and oh-so-yummy!

SUPER SNACK RECIPE!! I can't say enough about this party mix ~ I made a batch for my daughter's 15th birthday party and the teenagers devoured it in minutes!! Adults loved it too. I cooled it on wax paper I sprayed with olive oil and it came off easy. Thanks!

I added mini pretzles before baking and then M&Ms at the end. I couldn't stop eating this and my guests loved it. My 17 year old begged me to let her take it in a baggie everyday to share with her friends at summer school. Winner, winner! P.S. Don't make this if you are on a diet because you will not be able to resist it and there is nothing diet about it.

I am giving this 5 stars even though I didnt really care for it (probably due to pregnancy taste bud issues), but my family LOVED it and were addicted to it. My sister said she is not making this at home cos she's eat it all. The only change i made was honey roasted peanuts instead of the other nut (not almonds, but the other one - sorry cant remember exactly what the recipe called for). easy to make! thanks for the recipe.

The reviews didn't lie. Addictive is the perfect word for it. Reminds me a bit of "Cracker Jacks" or whatever it was called with the popcorn and peanuts in the box with the prize. Next time I think I'll try adding some fresh popped corn along with the cereal and nuts.

DO NOT make this recipe if you are on a diet. I made this for my daughter's b-day party and it was sooo good and soooo addictive that I couldn't stop eating it. It also got rave reviews from all of the party guests. I will definitely make this mix again.....Also, I added M&Ms as suggested by some of the other reviewers, but I actually preferred it without them.

Not quite what I expected but very good. I really thought it would be sweeter. I made the syrup just as directed but did add some broken pretzel sticks, potato sticks, and toasted chopped almonds, walnuts & pecans. The trick to this is just to mix it in the roasting pan in the first place, then dump onto two sheets of parchment paper side-by-side on your table. It cools very quickly, allowing you to 'mix' it with your hands on the parchment. Thank you very much for this recipe! UPDATE: I just made this again, 1 1/2 years later and forgot I had made it before. My experience this time was much different, although I didn't really do anything significantly differently. I was really really awesomely good and addictive. I do have a convection oven now and wonder if that's why it came out a little chewier, though not sticky. LOVED IT!
