The other day I shared a sweet cereal snack mix. Well, today I have a savory version. It’s a savory cheesy ranch Crispix mix with a hint of sweetness.

This snack mix includes 5 items. There is Crispix cereal, mini pretzels, gold fish crackers, cheese crackers and oyster crackers. For the cheese crackers, I used regular Cheezits. I do think next time I am going to try to use the white cheddar Cheezits. I love using the Crispix instead of Chex cereal. It give you both the rice and corn cereal in one piece. It also only requires me to buy 1 box of cereal instead of two.

The coating for the mix consists of butter, ranch dressing mix, Worcestershire sauce along with a little brown sugar and cayenne pepper. There is not enough cayenne to make is spicy, but you could up the cayenne if you really wanted to give it more of a kick.

Once you get everything mixed together, you are going to bake this for 1 hour at 225 degrees. This just bakes that coating onto all of the mix. You do need to mix it a couple of times during the baking process to insure everything is well coated and that the coating is getting cooked onto the ingredients well. This cheesy ranch Crispix mix is a great addition to a holiday party spread of it works great to give as a gift.
