My mom makes the homemade Chex Mix recipe that she still has from the 70's . She tweaks it a little and makes it her own, but it is seriously addictive.

My grandma created her very own recipe for chex mix. We call them "party snacks". Every time I go to her house she has a old chex cereal boxes filled to the brim with her home made party snacks. During the holidays it has become tradition to bake up a batch. They are soooo yummy and kinda spicy with a hint of tobasco sauce and touch of bacon. Delicious!!!!!!!
