Chex Pumpkin Pie Crunch GF

Items needed:
small bowl
small microwaveable bowl
fork
large microwaveable bowl (7 cups or larger)
plastic flexible mixing spoon

Ingredients:
1/4 cup brown sugar (I like dark brown sugar because it gives a caramel flavor.  If only light brown, I add 1 Tbs    molasses.  To each, his own.)
1 1/2 tsp. cinnamon
1/2 tsp. cloves
1/4 tsp. nutmeg
1/4 c. butter, margarine or oil
2 tsp. vanilla
6 c. favorite GF Chex cereal (could even use popcorn)
1 c. pecans (optional)

Instructions:
In small bowl, mix sugar and spices.  In the small microwaveable bowl, melt butter/margarine. Cool and add vanilla.  In the large bowl, put cereal/popcorn and nuts.  Pour cooled liquid over the cereal/popcorn and nuts.  Mix evenly.  Sprinkle sugar and spices over the cereal/popcorn and nuts.  Stir until coated.
Microwave for one minute and stir.  Repeat 4 more times or until mixture begins to brown.  Spread on waxed paper or cookie sheet until cool.  Keep in an airtight  container or storage bag.
