PRALINE PECAN CRUNCH SNACK MIX



Praline Pecan Crunch Snack Mix image

In our family, we call this "Crunchy-Crunchy." My mother-in-law makes a big batch of this every Christmas. We receive it in the big box of gifts and my youngest is very excited to see "Grandma's Crunchy-Crunchy" snack mix. I sometimes make it myself, but it's more special to receive it from Grandma, you know? It is great for gift giving in a nice air-tight plastic container. Great to put out for a sweet snack, any time of the year! Note: I have added a little salt to the recipe as a personal preference. If you want to leave it out as the original recipe calls for, you can do so. Enjoy!

PRALINE PARTY MIX



Praline Party Mix image

This is a little "kicked-up" version of the all time favorite Chex Party Mix. Our niece gave us a gift of this one Christmas and I have made it every holiday since.

Provided by Donna Brown

Categories     Other Appetizers

Number Of Ingredients 6

6 c corn, rice or wheat chex cereal (i use corn and wheat)
2 c pecan halves
1/4 c butter
1/2 c brown sugar
1/3 c savannah cinnamon company praline mix (this comes in a 25 fl. oz. bottle that can be purchased directly online from the savannah cinnamon & cookie co. or some boutiques and food warehouses sell it)
1/2 tsp baking soda

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 250 degrees. Line parchment paper on a large cookie sheet. I use my 1/2 sheet cake pan. Pour onto parchment the pecans and cereal. Mix well with your hands. In a small saucepan, mix brown sugar, praline mix, and butter. Gently boil 2 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in baking soda until foamy. Pour over cereal/pecans and stir to coat well. Bake for 1 hour. (The recipe says to stir once during baking, but I have found to stir 2 or 3 times during baking process is best.) This recipe was taken directly from the praline bottle. This praline mix has many good recipes with it, i.e. Praline Cake, Whipped Topping, Southern Cappuccino, Cafe' Royale, Sweet Potatoes, etc. This bottle of mix lasts a long while. This is my 3rd Christmas on this particular bottle. NOTE: I do have the address, online site and 800 phone # if you would like it.
