2-1/2 c. mini-pretzels
1 c. pecan halves
1/3 c. packed brown sugar
1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp. ground red pepper
1/4 c. butter
Place butter, brown sugar, cinnamon and red pepper in a 4 quart microwavable bowl. Microwave at HIGH 1-1/2 minutes or until bubbly. Remove from oven; stir in remaining ingredients and mix well. Microwave at HIGH 1 to 2 minutes.
Remove from oven and stir to coat mixture evenly. Spread out on waxed paper and cool completely. Yield: 6 cups
Instructions to give as a 'Gift in a Jar': Layer the popped corn, the pretzels and pecans in any order in a 2-quart storage jar. Place the brown sugar, cinnamon and red pepper in a small plastic twist tie bag and place in the top of the jar. Close with cover. The butter, which is not provided in the jar, is put into a bowl with the spices and microwaved, then mixed with the other ingredients. Don't forget to give the recipient instructions to prepare the recipe.
