Caramel Peanut Crunch Snack Mix

Crunch Mix:
5 Cups each lightly sweetened oatmeal cereal squares
5 Cups Rice and Corn Cereal Squares
4 Cups pretzel twists
4 Cups peanuts
3 Cups toasted "O" oat squares.

Caramel Mix:
½ cup White Karo Syrup
2 cups Brown Sugar
1 cup Butter
1 teaspoon Salt
1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
1 teaspoon Baking Soda

Preheat oven to 250°. Mix all cereal, pretzels, and peanuts in a large roaster pan. Set aside to prepare Carmel Syrup.

In a 8-quart Dutch Oven mix together the first five ingredients, and boil 5 minutes. After 5 minutes add Baking Soda, while still foaming, pour over crunch mixture and mix well. Bake for 45 minutes stirring every 15 minutes. Wooden spoons work best. Pour out onto wax paper to cool. As it cools break into smaller pieces. Store in airtight container.
