Instructions
- Combine all cereal, coconut and nuts in a large bowl.
- In a medium saucepan, heat the butter, sugar, corn syrup and salt over medium heat. Once it begins boiling, set a timer and boil for 3 minutes, stirring often.

Notes
Recipe yields about 10 cups of snack mix. I generally measure out 1.5 cups for gifts, so you'll get about 6 gifts from each batch.
1 serving is calculated as 1/3 cup.
