3 Tips for Extra Deliciousness:

1. don't skimp on your seasonings (but also don't overdo it...you can always add more next time)

2. to ensure butter mixture reaches all dry ingredients, start by pouring 1/2 onto dry mix, stirring then adding the other 1/2 of butter mixture and stirring again before adding to your oven

3. lock it up! Or at least consider having someone you trust hide it so your hard earned snack can last you longer than a day
