Almond Joy Holiday Chex Mix

Making traditions during the holidays are so special. This is a recipe that is super easy to make and perfect to make with the family and kids every year. I love making a big batch and giving it as gifts. It’s perfect to give to grandparents, teachers, neighbors, etc.

The key ingredient in this recipe is the Skinny Dipped Chocolate Covered Almonds. I prefer chopping them up a little, but you can also put them in whole. Don’t forget to grab some Christmas themed sprinkles to give this recipe a little holiday cheer!

 

Ingredients:

  • 5 cups of Rice Chex cereal
  • 2 cups of pretzels (any kind/shape will work)
  • 2 bags of Skinny Dipped Dark Chocolate Covered Almonds (chopped)
  • 2 cups of shredded sweetened coconut
  • Christmas red & green sprinkles
  • 1.5 cups of Light Corn Syrup
  • 1 stick of butter
  • 1.5 cups granulated sugar

Directions:

  1. Add chex, pretzels, almonds, and coconut to a large mixing bowl. Spread out onto wax paper.
  2. Melt butter over medium heat. After butter has melted, add corn syrup and sugar. Stir and bring to a boil. Once outside edges begin to boil, set a timer for 2 minutes.
  3. After 2 minutes, remove from heat immediately. Pour mixture over the chex mix.
  4. Glenty stir to coat the entire mixture. Toss on some sprinkles to add a little Christmas cheer.
  5. Let cool for about 15-20 minutes before digging in. It’s normal for it to be a little sticky!

Enjoy!
