Gooey Chex Mix

This is a holiday favorite. It's nice to have when family is gathered together. You just grab a handfull everytime you walk by.


½ cup margarine
1 cup light corn syrup
1 cup powdered sugar

Melt margarine; mix in syrup and sugar bring to a boil.

Mix together in a separate bowl

6 cups Rice Chex
5 cups Golden Grahams
1 cup coconut
1 cup sliced almonds

Slowly add the liquid to the cereal mixture; stirring well. (I find it works best to add the coconut and almonds a little at a time when combining the cereal and the coating; that way they don’t all sink to the bottom.)

Cinnamon Sugar Almonds

I made these for neighbors one year and put them in little bags. They are a fun little treat.

1/3 cup butter
2 egg whites room temperature
Pinch of salt
1 cup sugar
3 cup Almonds
4 teaspoons cinnamon

Melt butter on a jelly roll pan (cookie sheet). Beat egg and salt until fluffy. Add sugar until peaks form. Add cinnamon and almonds. Bake at 325 for 40 minutes stirring every 10 minutes.
