An addicting snack mix that is super delicious. Easy to make and take with to parties or as a snack in the car!
This has that nice sweet and salty combo that satisfies both cravings when you can’t decide if you want something sweet or something salty. The salty flavor comes from the Bugles and nuts, and the sweet flavor comes from a mix of butter, karo syrup, and brown sugar that is drizzled over the top and then baked in.

Butter: 1/2 cup (1 stick) of butter, melted with the syrup and brown sugar.
