I couldn't find a recipe for this on the Chex site. I had 2 recipes that were very different in amounts, so I just kind of guess and it turned out perfect.
1/2 Small Box Golden Grahams
1/2 Small Box Rice Chex (*Note: one recipe called for 1/2 box of rice and 1/2 corn)
1/2 Small Box Corn Chex
2 1/2 sticks Butter
1 C. (and a little extra) White Sugar
an over flowing 1/2 c. of Light Corn Syrup
dash of vanilla
1 bag of Shredded Coconut
Slivered Almonds
Cashews
1. Combine cereals, coconut and nuts.
2. Melt butter, corn syrup, sugar and vanilla in a Medium Saucepan. Bring to Boil, Boil for about 3 minutes.
3. Pour over cereal, combine until the sugar mixture is evenly distributed.
4. Let cereal sit on a parchment paper-covered cookie sheet
5. Eat a bowl-full, feel stuffed and then put the rest in various tupperware and ship them out to friends and family before you eat the entire batch.
* I made this for the 3rd time this month for New Years. After I mixed it all together, I just kept eating and eating and eating. I kept thinking " Stop eating this, Stop eating it RIGHT NOW!" but what can I say? This will give you idle hands and as much as you try to stop eating it, you just can not do it. So, Really, the shipping it out in tupperware to other people is a crucial step.
