Make sure you follow the recipe….I didn’t and ended up mixing it all together, only to read that you mix only the rice chex, bugles and pretzels in a bowl.  I spent another 30 minutes picking out the candy before I baked it!!! LOL!!

  1. Love this. I loved that you remind people to follow the recipe closely. =) Sorry you had to pick out all of the candy before baking. Sounds like something I would do, for sure. Like Mother, like daughter or whatever! Thanks!
