Here's a recipe I think you will enjoy.  It is a snack mix.  For Christmas
giving you can place some in a square of colored plastic wrap and tie with
a ribbon.
 
1 1/2 boxes Bugles
1  cup pecan pieces
1  cup walnut pieces
Mix together in large bowl.
 
In large saucepan, on medium high heat, melt
1/2 cup butter
1    cup brown sugar
1/2 cup light corn syrup
1/2 cup honey
1/4 tsp. salt
 
Stir and boil for 5 minutes.  Lower heat and simmer for 5 minutes more,
stirring often.
Remove from heat.  Add
1/4 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp vanilla
Stir.
Pour over the bugle/nut mixture and mix well.   Spread out on a large non
stick cookie sheet till cool.
Bake at 275 degrees F. for 15 minutes.    Stir til all mix is coated.
Bake 15 minutes more.  Remove from oven.  Stir.
Pour mixture out onto wax paper and separate into chunks with two forks.
Cool.   Store in an airtight container.
 
(For anyone who does not know, Bugles is an American snack food.  Crispy
corn snack.  Corn Chex cereal will also work.  Or a mix of corn chex,
pretzels and peanuts.  Whatever you have on hand)
 
(If the honey is going to scorch, it will be during the baking.  Watch
closely.  10 minutes each turn may be enough.  Just want to melt the
coating so you can mix it well)
