Nanny's Chop Seuy

This is a family favorite. It makes a TON!

In a VERY large bowl add:

1 12 oz box rice crispies
1 12 or 14 oz box corn flakes
1 bag 14 oz coconut (can cut in half if you aren't a huge fan)
1 or 2 cans spanish peanuts

Mix Together

In a large (because it bubbles up really big) heavy bottom pan add:

4 cups light Corn Syrup
2 cups canned milk

over medium heat stir untill soft ball stage is obtained. 225-240 degrees Farenheit. This takes a lot longer than you would think! About 30-45 min.

Immediately poor over above mixture and quickly toss to coat evenly. Spread out on greased cookie sheet to cool. Cover and store. No need to worry about long it will keep. It will dissapear to quickly to even think about that!
