Rice Chex Treat


This is a recipe from my mom, Nell, via her sister, my Aunt Naoma.  It is one of my all-time favorite treats. Every time I make it, I have to have a plan for who I am going to share it with because if I didn't share it, I would eat the whole huge bowl myself!  It is not only delicious, but it is also super easy to make.

1 1/2 c. sugar
1 1/2 c. Karo Syrup
1 c. butter

Combine and boil for five minutes.  Remove from heat and cool for ten minutes.

Mix together in a large bowl:
10 c. Rice Chex Cereal
3 c. coconut
Chopped pecans--as many as you like

Pour the syrup over the cereal mixture and stir together until well coated.  
Dump onto wax paper and let cool.
