This is one of many first things Mom got us girls to make when we started baking and cooking. It was a picnic favorite. Ingredients:
1/2 cup butter |
1/2 cup sugar |
1/2 cup syrup |
2 tablespoons cocoa |
1 teaspoon vanilla |
11 cups puffed wheat cereal |
Directions:
1. Prepare a 9 x 13 cake pan by greasing the sides and bottom. 2. Boil butter, sugar, syrup and cocoa in a medium saucepan until it forms threads from a silver spoon. 3. Remove saucepan from heat and add vanilla. 4. In a very large mixing bowl pour this syrupy mix over puffed wheat. 5. Mix well and press firmly into a greased 9 x 13 pan. 6. After it has hardened, cut into serving pieces. |
