It's official: I have confirmed that I am indeed a crazy person. On Sunday, I signed up to run my first half marathon, the Indy 500 Mini Marathon. But here's the thing, the race is this Saturday! So clearly, I didn't train for it, other than my daily Orange Theory class. Oh yeah, and you know how I said this is my first half marathon? Well, what I really meant to say was this is my first race of any kind ever. Like I've never even done a 5K before. And by the way, all of this is in the midst of me preparing for a presentation and a final exam for my last required anatomy and physiology class.
So like I said, I am indeed a crazy person! Although, I probably didn't need to convince you.
Speaking of races, the Kentucky Derby is also this Saturday. I'm clearly not going but I wanted to make a Kentucky Derby-themed recipe. But I also wanted the recipe to be appealing to those who aren't interested in the Derby.
Let me introduce you to this Kentucky Bourbon Chex Mix! Party mixes are always a win in my book, and this one is particularly addicting. The flavors are unique, but they all work very well together. And can I just mention for a second that this is so incredible easy to make. Skills required include microwaving and mixing. That's pretty much it!
Kentucky Bourbon Chex Mix
Ingredients
- 2 cups Corn Chex
- 2 cups Rice Chex
- 2 cups Wheat Chex
- 1 cup pretzels
- 1 cup bagel chips
- 1 cup pecans
- 1/2 cup bacon bits or cooked, crumbled bacon
- 1/2 cup Challenge butter, melted
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup honey
- 3-4 Tablespoons bourbon, depending on taste preference
- 1 teaspoon chipotle seasoning
- Preheat oven to 275 degrees Fahrenheit, and prepare 2 baking sheets by either spraying it with nonstick spray or by lining it with parchment paper
- Mix together Chex cereals, pretzels, bagel chips, pecans, and bacon bits.
- Combine butter, brown sugar, and honey in microwave safe bowl and melt for 30 seconds, or until mixture is completely melted.
- Wait 2 minutes for it to slightly cool, and add bourbon and chipotle seasoning.
- Pour sauce over dry ingredients and stir to combine
- Distribute mixture evenly between 2 baking sheets and bake for 15 minutes, stirring every 5 minutes.
Cooked it. A bit complicated as for me, but the taste is perfect.

ReplyDeleteA little clarification, if you cook in a small rotisserie oven then 275 degrees will be too much, part of the cookies were burned.
