Cocunut Chex Party Mix!!! AKA: "Cereal Treats!"

Apparently this is a tradition with my husbands family and I didn't know it!!  His grandmother used to make it regularly throughout the holiday season.  Well I have had it before absolutely loved it so did some research and here is the recipe if you'd like to include it in the treat/snack portion of your next party!!  It's super simple and Uber Yummy!!  There is one tip to be shared though: boil the caramel mixture the full 3 minutes or it will be soggy instead of crunchy but dont over boil it or it will break your teeth!! lol!!

6 Cups Chex (a mixture of any variety of your choice)
6 cups Golden Grahams
1/2 cup Chopped Almonds
1/2 cup Cocunut
1 1/2 cubes butter
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup Kayro syrup
1/2 tsp vanilla

Mix cereals, nuts, and coconut in a large bowl and set aside.  Then mix butter, sugar, syrup, and vanilla in a medium sized sauce pot and boil for 3 minutes.  Pour liquid mixture over cereal and stir until completely covered then lay out on parchment or wax paper until cooled.  Break into bite size pieces and serve!!  Soo EASY and YUMMY!!!
