Gooey Chex Mix


12 C (one box) corn chex cereal (or mixture of cereals)
1-2 C slices almonds (or nut of your choice - optional)
1 C corn syrup
1 C sugar
3/4 C butter
1 tsp. vanilla

In a large bowl, mix the cereal and nuts, and set aside.  In a sauce pan, heat all other ingredients, and bring to a boil - mixing constantly.  Once it begins to boil, lower temperature, while keeping a slow simmer.  Continue stirring, while it simmers for 5 min.  Remove from heat, and pour over the cereal, and mix to coat everything well.  If you want to mix chocolate chips in (1 C), this would be a good time.  Pour out onto wax paper to cool.

This is a very simple treat, but I warn you, it is very addicting!

Enjoy!
