Preheat oven to 250°
In a roasting pan over 2 burners, melt together the butter, spices, and hot sauce until combined. Add the cashews and mix to coat.
Gradually add rice and corn cereal, mixing thoroughly until well coated, 8-9 cups of cereal.
Under no circumstance should you add bagel chips, pretzels, or other kinds of nuts ;)
Transfer to oven and toast for 2 hours, mixing halfway.
Allow to cool to room temp, then store in airtight container. Mix should stay crunchy and fresh up to one week.
