MMMMMM... mom, can we have some more? A deliciously chocolaty square that packs well in little one's lunches.. (big one's too!). Enjoy! Ingredients:
8 cups puffed wheat cereal |
3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder |
1/3 cup corn syrup |
1/4 cup packed brown sugar |
1/3 cup butter or margarine |
Directions:
1. Place puffed wheat in a large bowl, and set aside. Grease one 9x9 inch pan. 2. Grease the rim of a medium saucepan to prevent boil-over. Place the cocoa powder, corn syrup, brown sugar, and butter or margarine in the saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring often until mixture comes to a full boil. Allow to boil for 1 minute, and then remove from heat. 3. Pour chocolate mixture over puffed wheat, and stir until puffed wheat is evenly coated. Using a buttered spatula, press mixture into the prepared pan. Allow to cool, then cut as desired. Wrap squares individually, or store in an airtight container. |
