Savory Cashew Chex Mix

Meet your new signature party snack — crunchy, salty, wildly addictive, and starring Ferris Whole Cashews for that rich, nutty upgrade you can taste in every handful. This mix comes together fast, fills the house with the best toasty aroma, and disappears even faster.

Ingredients (Makes ~8 cups)

  • 3 cups Rice Chex cereal

  • 2 cups Wheat Chex cereal

  • 1 cup Ferris Whole Cashews

  • 1 cup bagel chips, broken into bite-size pieces

  • 1 cup pretzels

  • 6 tbsp butter, melted

  • 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce

  • 1 tsp garlic powder

  • 1 tsp onion powder

  • ½ tsp smoked paprika (optional but excellent)

  • ½–1 tsp salt, to taste


Instructions

  1. Preheat and prep.
    Set your oven to 250°F and line a baking sheet with parchment.

  2. Mix the dry ingredients.
    In a large bowl, combine Rice Chex, Wheat Chex, Ferris Whole Cashews, bagel chips, and pretzels.

  3. Make the savory coating.
    In a separate bowl, whisk together melted butter, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, and salt.

  4. Coat the mix.
    Pour the butter mixture over the dry ingredients and toss gently until everything is evenly coated. Take your time — every piece deserves the spotlight.

  5. Bake until toasty.
    Spread the mixture onto the baking sheet and bake for 45–60 minutes, stirring every 15 minutes to keep things crisp and golden.

  6. Cool (the hardest part).
    Once the mix is crunchy and fragrant, remove it from the oven and let it cool completely. This helps it get that perfect munchable texture.

  7. Snack away.
    Serve in big bowls, pack into jars for gifting, or store in an airtight container for up to a week… if it lasts that long.


Variations

  • Spicy Kick: Add ½ tsp cayenne or red pepper flakes.

  • Garlic Lover’s Version: Double the garlic powder.

  • Sweet & Savory: Add 1 cup of Ferris dried cranberries after baking.
