Toffee Almond Jumbles
Makes 16 pieces

1 package Almond Accents Butter Toffee Glazed sliced almonds
2 cups Wheat Chex®
1 cup broken pretzel sticks (about 1/2-inch pieces)
1 1/2 cups butterscotch chips
1/2 cup chocolate chips
sea salt for sprinkling (optional)

In large bowl, mix Almond Accents, Wheat Chex and broken pretzels. In a 4-cup microwavable cup, microwave butterscotch chips, uncovered, on medium for 10 seconds; stir and repeat in 10-second intervals until mixture can be stirred smooth. Pour over cereal mixture, stirring until evenly coated.

On a wax-paper lined cookie sheet, form mixture into 16 “stacks”; if mixture begins to cool and crumble, return to microwave for 10 seconds then continue.

In another small microwavable bowl, microwave chocolate chips, uncovered, on medium in 10-second intervals, until chocolate can be stirred smooth. Drizzle chocolate over snack-mix stacks and lightly sprinkle with sea salt if desired. Refrigerate until just set. Store in an airtight container at room temperature.
