Can you believe T-Day is 2 days away & I still haven't decided if we're going to ALSO smoke a bird? I go back & forth every hour.

Here is a recipe for an easy snack mix for munching on throughout the day. (Watch out it is addicting)

Sweet Snack Mix

5 c Crispix cereal

2 c Cashews (or your favorite nut)

3/4 c Butter

3/4 c Brown Sugar

Mix the cereal and nuts together in a cake pan.

Cook butter (I melt it first) and brown sugar to a boil. Boil for 2 minutes (be exact on the time), stirring the whole time.

Pour butter and brown sugar over cereal mix, and stir to coat.

Bake at 350 degrees for 10 minutes, transfer to a cookie sheet to dry out.

This recipe is very quick, but as with any caramel, toffee type dish, you should be exact and precise.

I get more requests for this easy snack than anything else I put together. Once you start munching you won't stop. The best part is standing back and watching people grab a handful, expecting just another Chex Mix, but once they taste it and realize it is sweet, they always do a double take, and keep right on eating.
