Tips for making ooey gooey Chex mix
- Spray your bowl: Before adding in your mix it makes it easier to spray the bowl with a non-stick cooking spray since it does get a little sticky and messy.
- Large bowl is best: The bigger the bowl the better! Start off by using a large bowl when making this ooey gooey Chex mix. It may get messy when stirring and combining.
- Use two bowls: If you do not have a large bowl, simply split the Chex mix recipe into two bowls.
- Stir constantly: When you are boiling the sugar mixture, stir constantly so it does not burn. This mixture does burn easily.
- Boiling over: The sugar mixture tends to boil over, simply turn down the heat a little bit once you start to see if rise quickly.
- Wooden spoon: I have learned that a wooden spoon is the key to sticky, ooey gooey recipes. It is easier to work with a special trick!
- Coconut: some people don’t love coconut, simply leave it out if there is a dislike to it.
