  5. Pour the butter mixture over the snack mix and gently stir until everything is lightly coated.

Notes

For best results, use a large bowl to avoid mess while stirring. Let it cool completely before storing to maintain the crunch. Store in an airtight container for up to a week or freeze it for longer shelf life. You can customize the nuts and crackers to your preference.
