Christmas Crack

So I found this recipe on Pinterest and it's one of my favorites.  I made it and shared some at the credit union I go to and they asked me to post the recipe so here it is:


1 12.8-ounce box Rice Chex cereal (we did half corn and half rice)
1 12-ounce box Golden Grahams cereal
1 7-ounce bag shredded coconut
1 cup slivered almonds (we used chopped)
1 1/2 cups butter (3...yes 3...sticks of butter)
2 cups sugar
2 cups corn syrup

Combine Rice Chex and Golden Grahams, coconut and almonds in a large mixing bowl. Stir to combine.
In a large sauce pan, cook butter, sugar and corn syrup to the "soft ball" stage...about 234 degrees on a candy thermometer. Pour over cereal mixture and stir until all is well coated. Pour mixture out onto 2 large cookie sheets to cool. Stir it around occasionally to prevent clumping. Store in an airtight container.
