Party Cheese Cracker Mix

"This is easy and delicious to offset those sweet things that are too often served at parties. It tastes best if made the day before, and let sit over night. You will need a very LARGE bowl, with a lid if possible. You will also need 1 - 16 oz box of Cheez-it crackers and 2- 6.6 oz Pepperidge Farm Cheddar Goldfish. The recipe would not accept these two items."

  1. This was a big hit at my daughter's middleschool party. I was also skeptical about the amount of oil used, but I followed the directions with good results...the mix is well-distributed and flavorful without being greasy. I will be making this agian!
     
  2. This is a very good snack mix and very easy to put together. I was a little hesitant because there is a a whole cup of oil in the recipe, but the crackers are not greasy at all. This was a big hit at my football party. Makes a large batch so it's great to take to a party. Thanks for a great recipe aussiekarin!

I originally joined the site as "aussiekarin", but decided instead to go with my nickname - Kayne. Sorry if this causes any confusion! I moved to the US from Australia in 1970, and apart from three years in Germanyhave been here the whole time. However, still consider myself an Australian, although I was actually born in Holland. Since I come from such a diversified background, my cooking is rather strange at times. Many times it is a combiniation of Dutch, Aussie / English, German and American. I'm not really much of a cook, but enjoy it, nevertheless. I just wish I knew more and could do more - without a recipe! I'm retired now, so one of my goals is to really learn to cook. I intend to enjoy my retirement, doing what I never had time to do before. Since joining Recipezaar in November, 2006, I find that my cooking has changed somewhat. I'm more adventurous, willing to try new and more varied tastes, and combinations, and just about all of what I prepare is edible. Lately, due to a major life change, I've been letting my cooking go, but hopefully that will change one day. Oddly, I miss it, more than I ever thought I would!!!!!
