Tasty Treat

I thought you might enjoy the recipe we used today to make our Friendship Mix. It was really yummy. If you are looking for an easy snack to make, it's great. If you are looking for a healthy snack...well....ok it's not that healthy. :-)

Ingredients: Sugar, cinnamon, pretzels, M&Ms, craisins, chex cereal, butter

The ingredients are really up to you. Nuts would be a good addition but I can't use them at school.

The amount is up to you too. I put in about a cup of M&Ms, a cup of craisins, 2 cups of pretzels and like 5 cups of chex cereal.

I started by mixing sugar and cinnamon in a big bowl. How much is up to you. My first batch I didn't use a lot. It wasn't that great. The second batch I probably used a couple cups of sugar and added cinnamon until it was just a little "cinnamony." :-)

Then I poured in all the other ingredients except the butter.

Then I melted a stick of butter, poured it on top and mixed it all together.

Then I put it on a cookie sheet and baked it at 350 for like 5-10 minutes.

Let it cool and enjoy!
