{ HOLIDAY RECIPE :: Chex Mix }

Wednesday night the husband and I joined the Hobbins family on the S.S. HOBBY for the annual Newport Harbor Christmas Cruise, a tradition I look forward to with anticipation every year!

This year we were asked to bring a yummy dessert to share, and with all the pregnant woman that would be on board, I knew this ooey gooey sugary Chex Mix would be the perfect treat! It's obviously super-loaded with sugar, which is why I call it a Holiday recipe, because somehow we always justify eating a bunch of junk at Christmas time. Soooo good!

INGREDIENTS:
- 1/2 box Corn Chex
- 1/2 box Golden Grahams
- 2 cups coconut
- 1 cup sliced almonds
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 cup Karo syrup
- 3/4 cup butter (real)


DIRECTIONS:
Mix cereal, coconut, and almonds in a large bowl. In a medium pot melt the sugars and butter together. Boil 2 minutes. Pour over cereal and mix. Do not cover.
