Sweet Chex Mix

Okay, I know the typical "it's a new year I need to start eating healthier" statement. Well, I just have to post my favorite unhealthy snack. We ate this for New Years Eve and have had way too much in the house. We invited friends over to party that night, but there was too much sickness going around, including my family. We cancelled the morning of, but I still decided to make everything. My family enjoyed the food, games, and movie.
Happy New Year!


1 small box Rice Chex
2 cups Coconut
1 cup Sliced Almonds
1 cup Karo Syrup
1 cup sugar
1/2 tsp. Baking Soda
1 tsp. Vanilla
1 1/2 cup Butter
Cook sugar, Karo syrup and butter in microwave for 5 minutes. Stir and cook 2 minutes more. Add vanilla and baking soda then pour over dry mixture of coconut, almonds, and rice chex. Stir well.
