Treats!!!

Making treats is a favorite past time, eating them more so. Here are a is one of my favorite sweet snacks - Sweet Chex Mix. I am not allowed to show up to a scrapbooking weekend without it. It is probably my most requested recipe.

Sweet Chex Mix

1 (11 ounce) box Golden Grahams
4 cups corn chex
4 cups rice or wheat chex
2 cups coconut
1 cup slivered almonds

Mix together in a large bowl.

1 cup sugar
1 cup light corn syrup
1 stick butter

Mix sugar, corn syrup, and butter in saucepan and bring to a boil. Boil for 3 minutes. Pour over cereal mixture and stir to coat. Spread out on wax paper to cool.
(The longer it boils the more crunchy it becomes. At 3 minutes it is perfectly gooey!)

BEWARE: Once you take a bite you will be addicted!
