These deliciously chocolaty puffed wheat squares pack well in your little one’s lunchbox. Mmmm… Can we have some more, mom? Enjoy!
Ingredients
- 8 cups puffed wheat cereal
- 3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/3 cup corn syrup
- ¼ cup packed brown sugar
- 1/3 cup butter or margarine
Directions
Step 1
Place puffed wheat in a large bowl; set aside. Grease a 9-inch square pan.
Step 2
Grease the rim of a medium saucepan to prevent boil-over. Place cocoa powder, corn syrup, brown sugar, and butter or margarine in the saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring often until the mixture comes to a full boil. Allow to boil for 1 minute, and then remove from heat.
Step 3
Pour chocolate mixture over puffed wheat and stir until puffed wheat is evenly coated. Using a buttered spatula, press the mixture into the prepared pan. Allow to cool, then cut as desired. Wrap squares individually, or store in an airtight container.
