Salty Churro Toffee Snack Mix

Run, don’t walk, to the kitchen right now and make this.

I feel like that’s all I have to say…

HA. Right. What would this blog be without a whole slew of unsolicited opeenionnnns?

Boring. That’s what it would be.

Anyhow, this snack mix is a riff on my Praline Crack recipe (which you NEED to make if you haven’t already). And between you and me, I should have called it Churro Crack, but the Crack police get on me when I use “crack” in a title. So I opted for the super wordy Salty Churro Toffee Snack Mix, as not to offend.

But between you and me, it’s Churro Crack.

Salty Churro Toffee Snack Mix. This is SO crazy addictive and delicious! Salty/Sweet/Cinnamony/Buttery. PERFECT for parties!

How to Make the Best Snack Mix

It’s so super easy, and really impossible to mess up. Unless you burn it. So don’t do that.

You start with about 5 cups of Oyster Crackers. It’s basically an entire bag. Lay them out on a foil lined baking sheet…

Then boil together some butter and brown sugar and add a dash of cinnamon too. Coat your crackers with that mess…

Stir them to make sure all the crackers get coated evenly.

And bake it up! It will be bubbly and gorgeous.

And as soon as it comes out of the oven sprinkle it all over the top…

Let it cool and then break the crackers apart…

  1. It turned out really good but next time I’m going to add some red pepper to kick it up and counter the sugar.






    1. I have never tried this recipe with vegan butter, but let us know how it turns out! I think it would work fine!

    What I love about this recipe is that it just works. When it came out of the oven, with all the sauce and crackers stuck together, I assumed that I’d just be breaking it up into chunks. I was thrilled to discover that it easily broke up into individual crackers, once cooled.

    Next time you m gonna play with flavors a bit and maybe do more of a mix with the oyster crackers, then maybe some mini pretzels, pecans, etc. Also may add a little cayenne pepper for a little heat… love sweet, savory, hot in one bite.

    This is a winner.






    1. I haven’t tried this! In theory I think it will work, but the crackers do absorb a bit of the buttery sauce and almonds wouldn’t, so I think you would be left with more sauce leftover. If you do try it, let me know!
