Puffed Wheat Cake

By convred

Great recipe. I doubled the recipe, but the sauce should have been 3x because it wasn't sticky enough.

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

Preparation

Step 1

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.
