Instructions
1 In a large microwave-safe bowl, combine corn cereal and peanuts. Set aside. 2 In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add butter and whisk constantly until fully combined and boiling. Remove from heat, whisk in corn syrup, vanilla, and baking soda until completely combined. 3 Pour over cereal/peanuts and fold mixture with a rubber spatula to even coat. 4 Transfer bowl to microwave and microwave for 1 minute, remove from microwave and stir. Repeat 2-3 more times. (Microwave for 3 minutes for a slightly softer caramel, and 4 minutes for a slightly crunchier caramel.) 5 Spread snack mix into a single layer onto a large baking sheet lined with foil. Allow to cool on the pan and break apart large clusters if desired. Cover the snack mix tightly once cooled; it will stay fresh for up to 2 weeks.View original recipe
