Ingredients
2 cups puffed corn cereal (like Kix)

3 tablespoons Splenda No Calorie Sweetener (granulated)
1ВЅ tablespoons light whipped butter or light buttery spread
1 tablespoon light corn syrup
ВЅ teaspoon cinnamon
1 tablespoon sliced almonds

Directions
Since this is a quickie recipe, it's best to have all ingredients measured out and ready to go before starting, in order to avoid burning. Begin by setting out a large piece of foil for the recipe to cool on after it's prepared.
In a medium saucepan, combine butter, Splenda, corn syrup, and cinnamon. Stir while cooking over low heat. Once mixture is thoroughly blended and bubbling, stir in both cereals and coat them with the mixture. Continuously stir for about 2ВЅ minutes, until cereal mix looks well coated and toasty.
Mix in apple crisps and almonds, and then immediately remove from heat. Spread mixture out on foil until cool.
