Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F.
  2. Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add the Parmesan, adobo sauce, chili powder and garlic. Stir together and let cook for 2 to 3 minutes to allow the flavors to blend.
  3. Meanwhile, add the cheese puffs, Cheddar crackers, fish crackers and Cheddar corn cone snacks to a large roasting dish or divide them between 2 baking sheets.
  4. Pour the butter mixture over the mix. Toss until well coated.
  5. Bake, tossing every 15 minutes, until golden brown and fragrant, about 1 hour.
  6. Add the popcorn and cheese balls, then toss to combine.
  7. Allow to cool, about 30 minutes, before enjoying. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks.
