Recipe: m&m's® Brand Snack Mix

I include this one out of a kind of horrified fascination. I am astounded that anyone would seriously propose mixing these things together: butter, m&m's, and honey? Try at your own risk; I intend to stay far away.

Ingredients

2 Tablespoons butter or margarine[1]

2 cups of your favorite grain cereal[2]
(or 3 cups granola)
1 cup raisins

4 Tablespoons honey[1]

1 cup coarsely chopped nuts
1 cup thin pretzel pieces

2 cups of M&M's® Chocolate Candies -- any variety!

Preparation

In a large pot over low heat, melt butter; add honey until blended. Remove from heat & add cereal, nuts, pretzels & raisins, stirring until all pieces are evenly coated. Spread mixture onto cookie sheet & bake at 300F (150C) about 10 mins. (do not overbake!). Spread onto waxed paper & allow to cool completely. Pour into bowl & mix in your favorite M&M's® Chocolate Candies variety. Store in tightly covered container.
MAKES ABOUT 6 CUPS.

Notes:

Note 1: (Note in original.) For a less-moist mix, eliminate butter & honey. Simply mix dry ingredients & do not bake.
Note 2: A cereal with no added sugar, I should think, though granola usually is sweetened. Depends on taste, I suppose.
