1/4 cup Unsalted butter or margarine1/2 cup Light corn syrup
1/2 cup Brown sugar
1/4 cup Cocoa
1 tsp Vanilla extract
7 cups Puffed wheat cereal ( so not put more or else squares will not be chewy )
Directions
- Lightly grease a 9 inch heatproof pan or corning ware platter with a little butter or margarine.
- Measure cereal and put in a large, lightly greased bowl, set aside.
- Melt butter/margarine in a medium sized pot.
- Add brown sugar to the pot and mix well until dissolved.
- Add cocoa and brown sugar. Mix until well blended.
- Bring mixture to a boil, constantly stirring. Do not let it burn.
- Stir in vanilla and remove from heat.
- Immediately pour over puffed wheat. Mixing right away to completely coat all the cereal. I recommend you put the bowl of cereal in the sink to do this. This will avoid you having an extra sticky mess to clean up later.
