Autumn Chex Mix

I got this recipe from my boss, who brought it as a treat last week - it was so good!!!! I made some this weekend so I thought I'd pass along the recipe:

• 4 cups Chex Cereal
• 4 Cups Popped Popcorn
• 1 cup honey-roasted peanuts or cashews
• 1 cup roasted salted pumpkin seeds
• 1/4 cup butter or margarine
• 6 tablespoons packed brown sugar
• 2 tablespoons light corn syrup
• 1/4 teaspoon vanilla
• 1/4 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
• 1 cup candy corn

1. In 4 quart microwavable bowl, mix cereal, popcorn, nuts/cashews, and pumpkin seeds. Set aside.

2. in medium microwaveable bowl, microwave butter, brown sugar, corn syrup and vanilla uncovered on high for about 2 minutes or until mixture is boiling, stirring after 1 minute; stir in pumpkin pie spice. Pour over cereal mixture, stirring until evenly coated.

3. Microwave for 5-6 minutes stirring and scraping down the sides of the bowl after every minute. Spread on waxed paper to cool, about 15 mins, stirring occasionally to break up.

4. Stir in candy corn and store in airtight container.
