  • Remove from microwave and whisk in baking soda.
  • Pour over cereal mixture and gently toss until cereal and pecans are evenly coated.
  • Spread mixture onto a baking sheet lined with waxed paper; let cool.

Notes

  • If you don't have room in your fridge to let this set up, you can leave it out on your counter. It will set up faster in the fridge, but it also works to just leave it out.
