Puffed Wheat Squares |
This recipe is from a kids recipe book so the kids will have fun making them before they eat them!
Ingredients
- Butter or hard margarine ~ 1/3 cup
- Corn syrup ~ 1/2 cup
- Brown sugar packed ~ 2/3 cup
- Cocoa ~ 2 TBS
- Vanilla Flavouring ~ 1 TSP
- Puffed Wheat ~ 8 cups
Directions
You will need: measuring spoons, measuring cups, a medium saucepan, a mixing spoon, a hot pad, a very large bowl, a rubber spatula and a 9x9 inch pan.
- Combine the butter or margarine, syrup, brown sugar, cocoa and vanilla flavouring in the saucepan. Stir continually on medium heat until it starts to boil with bubbles all over the surface. Remove the saucepan to the hot pad.
- Measure the puffed wheat into the bowl. Pour the hot chocolate mixture over the top. Use the rubber spatula to scrape the saucepan. Stir well until all of the puffed wheat is coated. Grease the pan. Turn the coated puffed wheat into the pan. Press down using the dampened spatula. Chill for about 2 hours so it will cut cleanly. Cuts into 16 or 25 squares.
