Chewy Gooey Chex Mix

1 cup butter
1 cup karo syrup
1 cup sugar
6 cup rice chex
6 cup honey grahams
1 cup slivered almonds
1 cup cashew halves
1 cup coconut

Stir butter, light karo syrup, and sugar in a pan and bring to a boil for 3-4 minutes. Pour over the top of all the mix. Mix well. Spread mix on wax paper and let sit for 1 hour or longer.

Another Variation, not as gooey:

1 cup light Karo syrup
1 cup sugar
3/4 cup butter (NOT margarine)
1 pinch baking soda
18 cups mixed Golden Grahams cereal or Kix cereal or Chex cereal or Crispix cereal, and nuts

1. Preheat oven to 250°
2. Melt together Karo syrup, sugar and butter in a large saucepan. Bring to a boil.
3. Add butter flavoring and baking soda, mix.
4. Pour over cereal mixture (use whatever quantities of cereal and nuts that you desire to make 18 cups).
5. Spread on a large, flat cookie sheet and bake at 250° for 25 minutes. Remove from oven and spread Chex mixture on waxed paper, separating cereal pieces. Let cool completely.
