Recipe type: Dessert
Serves: 10-12
Ingredients
  • 2 cups Cinnamon Chex cereal
  • 2 cups Rice Chex cereal
  • 2 cups Corn Chex cereal
  • ½ cup butter (1 stick)
  • ¾ cup brown sugar
  • ¼ cup light corn syrup
  • 2 teaspoons cinnamon, divided
  • ¾ cup pecan halves
  • ¾ cup raisins
  • 1 cup white chocolate chips
  • 1 tablespoon shortening
Directions
  1. Preheat oven to 250 degrees. In a large mixing bowl, combine cereals and pecans. In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt butter (cut into tablespoon size pieces), sugar, corn syrup and 1½ teaspoons of the cinnamon. Continue stirring until mixture begins to boil. Remove from heat and pour over cereal. Stir to completely coat cereal and pecans.
  2. Spread cereal mixture in a large shallow baking pan. I lined mine with nonstick foil to prevent sticking and easy clean up. Place pan in oven and bake for one hour, stirring every 15 minutes. Remove from oven, stir in raisins and let cool.
  3. While mixture is cooling, combine white chocolate chips and shortening. Microwave for 1 minute. Remove and stir. Microwave in 15 seconds intervals, stirring in between, until chocolate is smooth. Stir in remaining ½ teaspoon of cinnamon. For easy drizzling, pour chocolate into a plastic sandwich bag, cut a small hole in one of the corners, and squeeze mixture over the cereal.
  4. Let cereal cool until chocolate is set. Break into pieces and eat by the fistful!
Notes
*You can always improvise with the cereal you have on hand. If you only have plain flavors of Chex, just add 2½ teaspoons of cinnamon to the corn syrup mixture for enough cinnamon flavor. If you only have the Cinnamon Chex, just reduce the cinnamon to 1 teaspoon for the corn syrup mixture.
