Interestingly, even the wheat chex, though the box is smaller. The average boxes of chex each hold 10 cups of cereal. I mean, boxed and processed cereal isn’t good for you in the first place! Then, look at the butter in the recipe! Don’t say I didn’t warn you, yet these are really, really addictive, and our house is not Christmas without them!ĭecember 2018 UPDATE: all Chex are now available in AB and across Canada, again! I have a lot of family to share with… but, don’t, for a minute, think these Homemade Nuts and Bolts are good for you. I have three sheet pans and use two for my double batch, in the same oven at 250✯ for 90 minutes, tossing well to combine (using the back and forth into another bowl to combine) before returning to the oven every 30 minutes. One batch will fill a complete sheet pan. Homemade Nuts and Bolts: Baking the Batches Continue drizzling, gently mixing and the back and forth “thing” until sauce is gone and every precious morsel of the Homemade Nuts and Bolts are coated with the buttered fatty good stuff. Drizzle next 1/4 over the top pour back into roaster to combine well. Use a measuring cup, and drizzle 1/4 of the sauce over the top pour entire batch into another container to toss. It is critical to evenly distribute the sauce before baking the bits, so pouring it over the top in one fell swoop is not a good idea. Homemade Nuts and Bolts: Dressing the Mix This year, I doubled the Worcestershire Sauce. I do “mess” with this original Homemade Nuts and Bolts recipe now and then.

Now, the cheerio hole is no longer big enough to do that. I remember taking the pretzel and piling the cheerios onto it as a child. This recipe is “the one” you have been looking for and these nuts and bolts are worth every calorie! The “sauce” is almost completely butter, but don’t let that deter you or influence you. Well, except that all of the ingredients come in a box. Homemade nuts and bolts… honestly, the only reason I buy “store bought” cereals, and it actually upsets me… but, if you are looking for that old-fashioned “once on the side of the cereal box” Nuts & Bolts recipe, this is it! The life long tradition of munching homemade nuts and bolts warm out of mom’s oven is a rare one from “our modern convenience food age” that I have chosen to carry on in my family because I LOVE them!
