2 qt Popcorn, popped

1 cup Blanched whole almonds, toasted

1 cup Pecan halves, toasted

1 cup Brazil nuts, toasted

1 cup Hazel nuts, toasted

1 1/2 cup Sugar, # two

1 cup Dark corn syrup

1/2 cup Butter or margarine

Preparation
Place the popcorn and nuts in a lightly greased 5 quart Dutch oven. Bake at 250 F. for 20 minutes. Meanwhile, in a Medium saucepan, combine sugar, corn syrup and butter; bring to a boil over Medium heat, stirring constantly. Cook, without stirring, until a candy thermometer reads 290 F.

Immediately spread on greased baking sheets. Cool; break into pieces. Store in an airtight container. Yield: about 4 quarts.
