1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
1/4 cup brown sugar

Mix the Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the Rice Chex, Corn Chex, pretzels, and pecans.

Prepare the Pumpkin Spice Mixture: In a separate small bowl, whisk together the melted butter, brown sugar, pumpkin pie spice, and vanilla extract until well combined.

Combine: Pour the pumpkin spice mixture over the Chex mixture and toss gently to coat all the pieces evenly.

Serve: Transfer to a serving bowl or store in an airtight container.

Notes:

Variations: Add dried cranberries, pumpkin seeds, or even mini marshmallows for extra flavor and texture.
Storage: Keep in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
