Churro Chex Mix

Yum

December 30, 2015 by Jodi + 9 Comments

This Churro Chex Mix is a fun twist on the original Chex muddy buddies recipe. Chex cereal coated in a melted butter and cinnamon chips mixture and then tossed with powdered cinnamon & sugar. It’s highly addicting!

If you love churros raise your hand.  I don’t know about you, but my hand is raised.  I love churros and apparently so do a lot of other people because I buy them by the case almost weekly for our baseball snack shacks.  

What’s not to love? They are cinnamon-sugar sticks of goodness.

Churro Chex Mix

I’ve got good news and bad news about this Churro Chex Mix. The good news is this stuff is so good. The bad news is this stuff is waaay too good. I feel  like I should tell you right up front that you won’t be able to put this stuff down. It’s addicting, and I mean extremely addicting. What I’m trying to say is you may possibly make yourself sick from eating too much . . .so be careful.  

This mix is the perfect combination of cinnamon, sugar, and crunch.  Make this! Please! I’m fully prepared to have you either love me or hate me for posting this . . . or maybe both. My boys went crazy over this and like me, they kept gravitating to the pan on the kitchen counter. It’s naughty stuff.

    Question: do you use chocolate chip and cinnamon chips? The ingredients and note says cinnamon chips, but the directions refer to chocolate chips. Churros are associated in my mind with a bit of both cinnamon and chocolate, so I’m confused.

      Hi, sorry about that, it’s just cinnamon chips, I’ve fixed it. Thanks for catching that. Apparently I had chocolate on my mind when I typed that up :). Hope you enjoy them.

    Oh wow! I just made this for a girls’ night that I’m hosting tonight for my gluten free pregnant friend. So yummy! I hope they’re still some left when the ladies get here.

    […] Churro Chex Mix.  Ahh dessert. The best part of any meal. I decided on churro chex mix because I “churro” happy to work with nurses.  Yes, lame, but it gets the point across.  The recipe is one I had on hand from a friend, but it matches this one from the 5 Boys Baker blog. All I know is I should have doubled the recipe. Eh, live and learn. […]
