Almond Snack Mix

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, cubed
1 teaspoon almond extract

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° to 266° (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.
