Ingredients:
• 7 cups popped plain popcorn*
• 4 cups crispy rice cereal, such as Chex
• 2 cups mini pretzels
• 1 1/2 cups Fisher Pecan Halves
• 1/2 cup unsalted butter, diced into 1 Tbsp pieces
• 1 cup packed light brown sugar
• 1/3 cup light corn syrup
• 1 pinch salt
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1/4 tsp baking soda
Instructions:
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a rimmed 18 by 13-inch baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat, set aside.
• Add popped popcorn, rice cereal, pretzels and pecans to an extra large mixing bowl, set aside.
• Melt butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add in brown sugar and corn syrup and bring mixture to a boil stirring constantly.
• Once it reaches a boil, reduce heat to medium-low and allow to boil, without stirring, for 4 – 5 minutes.
• Remove from heat, whisk in vanilla and baking soda (mixture will bubble up and foam). Immediately pour mixture over popcorn and quickly but gently toss to evenly coat.
