Instead of the usual savory version, here is a snack mix for those of us with a sweet tooth!
3 cups Rice Chex
3 cups Corn Chex
3 cups Crispix
1/2 cup butter, cubed
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1/4 cup corn syrup
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
Grease a couple of baking pans; set aside. In a large heatproof bowl, combine the cereals; set aside.
In a heavy saucepan over medium heat, bring the butter, brown sugar and corn syrup to a boil, stirring constantly. Reduce heat. Simmer uncovered for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove form heat; stir in vanilla. Pour over cereal and stir until well coated.
Transfer to prepared pans. Bake uncovered at just 200 for 1 hour, stirring every 15 minutes. Cool completely. Break apart and store in airtight containers.
