Preparation

Step 1

Combine Rice Chex, Golden Grahams, and cashews in a large mixing bowl.

In a large sauce pan, cook butter, sugar, and corn syrup to the "soft ball" stage. About 234°F on a candy thermometer. Pour over cereal mixture and stir until all is well coated.

Pour mixture out onto 2 large cookie sheets to cool. Stir it around occasionally to prevent clumping.

Store in an airtight container.
