Party Snack Mix

Just in time for New Years, this recipe makes an awesome snack mix.  The salty/sweet combination is addictive!

1 box Kix or Corn Pops cereal
1 large bag original Fritos corn chips
12-14 cups popped popcorn (butter flavor or plain)
32 oz (2 1/2 small bags) white/vanilla chips (find by the chocolate chips)
~ 2 tablespoons butter
Half n half or cream (just a little)

Stir together cereal, Fritos, and popcorn in several large bowls. Melt vanilla chips on the stove over medium-low heat (using a double boiler is perfect); be careful not to burn! Stir frequently.  While vanilla chips are slowly melting, slice up butter into small pieces and melt along with the chips.  Once it's all melted, stir in a little cream (start with like a tablespoon) to thin it down just a little so it's not like a paste. Pour over snack mix in bowls and stir well immediately. Spread in several large pans to cool. Store in ziplock bags. Yum!
