Sweet Chex Mix

Sweet Chex Mix

2 boxes Rice or Corn Chex (can mix one of each if you want)

1 lb. mixed nuts or peanuts (can leave out, but I think it tastes better with them in)

1 cup and butter

1 1/2 cups sugar

1 1/2 cups light corn syrup

1 TBSP vanilla

Mix together in a large bowl the Chex and the nuts.

Boil the butter, sugar, corn syrup for 2 min. 

 Add vanilla.  

Pour over Chex and nuts and stir until well coated.

This makes a lot, so you can store it in an airtight container and save some for later, or give it away as gifts.
