Original recipe (1X) yields 16 servings

1 (12 ounce) package crispy corn and rice cereal (such as Crispix)
3 cups pecan halves
3 cups whole almonds
2 cups brown sugar
1 cup corn syrup
½ cup unsalted butter
1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract

Directions

Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C). Lightly butter a large roasting pan.
Combine corn-rice cereal, pecans, and almonds in the prepared roasting pan.
Combine brown sugar, corn syrup, and butter in a saucepan; bring to a boil. Heat to 240 degrees F (115 degrees C) or until a small amount of syrup dropped into cold water forms a soft ball that flattens when removed from the water and placed on a flat surface. Remove syrup from heat; stir in vanilla extract.
Drizzle syrup over cereal mixture; toss to coat.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes; stir and continue baking for 30 minutes more. Spread cereal mixture in a single layer onto 2 lightly buttered baking sheets, separating any large chunks with 2 forks; cool.
