How to make Buffalo flavored Chex mix

Heat oven to 250 F.
Combine the corn Chex, wheat Chex, broken asian rice crackers, peanuts and White cheddar crackers in a large roasting pan.
Microwave the butter and Frank’s sauce to melt it to liquid, stir in the ranch packet.
Pour over the dry Chex mix ingredients and stir to coat completely
Bake at 250 F for 1 hour 15 minutes, stirring every 15 minutes.
Cool completely and store in an air tight container.

Why is the baking time more than a traditional Chex Mix recipe?

The reason this chex mix recipe takes and additional 15 minutes is because there in additional moisture with the Frank’s hot sauce. It needs additional time to allow the extra moisture to bak out and make the Chex mix crisp.

Can I microwave Buffalo Chex mix?

You are welcome to microwave the Buffalo Chex mix to cook it but I am not a fan of microwaving Chex mix. I love the toasting of the ingredients that the oven brings to this recipe. There is something nostalgic about waiting the hour and anticipating the goodness of the hot Chex mix coming out of the oven. Plus, I don’t have a microwavable bowl that is big enough to hold this recipe.
