Number Of Ingredients 7

5 cups MultiGrain Cheerios™ cereal
8 cups plain popped popcorn
1 cup regular salted or honey-roasted peanuts
1/2 cup light corn syrup
1/4 cup honey
2 tablespoons butter or margarine
1/2 teaspoon vanilla

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 325°F. In large bowl, stir cereal, popcorn and peanuts to mix; set aside.
  • In 1-quart saucepan, heat corn syrup, honey and butter over medium heat, stirring frequently, just until mixture begins to boil. Remove from heat. Stir in vanilla.
  • Pour syrup mixture over cereal mixture; stir until cereal mixture is evenly coated. Pour mixture into ungreased 15x10x1-inch pan. With rubber spatula, spread mixture until even.
  • Bake 20 to 25 minutes, stirring once or twice, until mixture is crisp. While mixture is baking, place sheet of waxed paper on work surface.
  • Immediately pour baked mixture onto waxed paper; spread out into a thin layer. Cool completely, about 30 minutes. Break caramel corn into pieces. Store in tightly covered container.
