Hi there! Cara from bovinebubbles here! With some help from my daughter Baylee, we spent sometime in the kitchen and whipped up some Puffed Wheat Squares. These were regular fare in our house growing up. I have fond memories making these with my mom and grandma and love to have the chance to continue on making them with my daughter.
Ingredients
1/2 cup butter or margerine plus more for greasing the pan
1 cup corn syrup
1 tsp vanilla
8 cups of puffed wheat (found in a bag in the cereal isle)
Grease a 9x13 pan with butter, set aside
Combine butter, corn syrup, sugars and cocoa powder in a heavy saucepan.
Bring to a boil.
