A delightful caramel-coated snack mix that's perfect for sharing.
Combine the salt, corn syrup, brown sugar, and butter in a microwave-safe bowl.
Ensure the butter is melted evenly for a smooth caramel consistency.
Microwave the mixture for 1-2 minutes, stirring every 30 seconds, until it starts to bubble.
Stirring frequently prevents the caramel from burning.
Stir in the baking soda until the mixture becomes frothy.
The baking soda helps create a light and airy caramel texture.
Place the cereal in a brown paper bag and pour the caramel mixture over it.
Shake the bag gently to coat the cereal evenly.
Microwave the bag for 3-4 minutes, shaking it every minute to redistribute the caramel.
Shaking ensures even coating and prevents clumping.
Spread the coated cereal onto a cookie sheet to cool completely.
Letting it cool ensures the caramel hardens properly for a crunchy texture.
Once cooled, store the mix in an airtight container.
Proper storage keeps the snack mix fresh and crisp.
