List of Ingredients
1 package (17.6 ounces) Rice Chex
2-3/4 cups sliced almonds
1 cup sugar
1 cup light corn syrup
3/4 cup butter (no substitutes)
1 teaspoon almond extractRecipe
Place cereal and almonds in a large bowl; set aside. In a heavy saucepan, combine the sugar, corn syrup and butter. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until a candy thermometer reads 250° (hard-ball stage).
Remove from the heat; stir in extract. Pour over cereal mixture; mix well. Spread onto waxed paper-lined baking sheets; cool. Toss to bread apart. Store in an airtight container.
Yield: 5 quarts.
Editor's Note: We recommend that you test your candy thermometer before each use by bringing water to a boil; the thermometer should read 212°. Adjust your recipe temperature up or down based on your test.
