Ooey Gooey Chex Mix is the perfect sweet, salty, and crunchy blend. It has a mixture of cereal, sliced almonds, and shredded coconut, all covered in a soft caramel sugar mixture. This is a must-make for the holiday season!
Line a baking sheet or two with parchment paper and set aside.
Add 5 cups corn Chex cereal, 5 cups Golden Grahams cereal, 2 cups sweetened shredded coconut, and 2 cups sliced almonds to a large bowl and toss until evenly mixed. Set aside.
Add 1 ¼ cup light corn syrup, 1 ¼ cup granulated sugar, and 1 cup salted butter to a medium saucepan (3-quart pan or larger) and heat over medium-high heat. Stir and cook until combined and the sugar is fully dissolved. Bring to a full rolling boil and boil for two minutes. Remove from heat and let the sugar mixture cool for two minutes.
Pour the sugar mixture over the cereal mixture and mix well until all the cereal is coated.
Spread it on the baking sheet or sheets, and set it aside to cool for a couple of hours before enjoying.
