A good friend shared this recipe with me, and it was already delicious. Then I kicked it up a notch by toasting the coconut and almonds, and it became absolutely irresistible! Great finger food for watching football and parties!
Ingredients
- 1 , 14 ounce
- 2 , 6 ounce
- 1 , 14 ounce
- 1 , 12 ounce
- 2 cups white sugar
- 2 cups corn syrup
- 1.5 cups unsalted butter
Instructions
-
1
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
-
2
Spread coconut on a baking sheet. Spread almonds on a separate baking sheet.
-
3
Bake coconut and almonds in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Remove baking sheets from the oven and stir. Continue baking, stirring every 2 to 3 minutes, until coconut and almonds are golden brown, 5 to 10 minutes total.
-
4
Combine coconut, almonds, rice cereal, and honey graham cereal together in a large bowl. Set aside.
-
5
Bring white sugar, corn syrup, and butter to a boil in a saucepan. 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 water and placed on a flat surface, about 10 minutes.

6
Pour sugar-butter mixture over cereal mixture and stir until well coated. Divide mixture between 2 baking sheets to cool, stirring occasionally to prevent clumping.

Chef John's Strawberry Semifreddo
My lighter, no-cook adaptation of semifreddo skips the traditional egg custard and cuts down on fat, sugar, and time. It just so happens to be lighter, with a cleaner, more distinct berry flavor and a texture that's less creamy than classic semifreddo, falling somewhere between strawberry ice cream and a strawberry ice pop.
Easy Apple Crisp with Pie Filling
This recipe using canned apple pie filling makes a delicious apple crisp. This is my grandmother's recipe that takes no time to make — or eat! Best served warm with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.
White Chocolate Cream Cake
The cake layers are made with white chocolate and whipped cream and flavored with almond extract. The frosting is a white chocolate buttercream. For an exquisite change of pace, substitute raspberry wine cooler for the water in the frosting.
