- 3 cups Rice Chex cereal
- 3 cups Corn Chex cereal
- 3 cups Golden Grahams cereal
- 2 cups sweetened shredded coconut
- 1 ½ cups slivered almonds
- ¾ cups butter 1 1/2 cubes
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup corn syrup
- ¼ tsp salt
- 2 cups holiday M&M's
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.
Once it's done, remove from heat and pour mixture over cereal. Stir well, so that everything is coated. Let sit for about 15 minutes stirring often to cool, then add M&M's and gently stir once more. Store in an airtight container. Enjoy!
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.
