Puffed squares

½ cup butter

1 cup corn syrup

1 cup white sugar

1/3 cup brown sugar

6 heaping TBSP. cocoa powder

1 tsp. vanilla

10 cups puffed wheat or Puffed Rice for GF version

Measure the puffed wheat into a large mixing bowl and set aside. 

Melt the butter with the corn syrup, sugars, and cocoa powder in a large saucepan over medium heat. 

Bring to a boil and simmer for 1 minute. 

Remove from heat, add the vanilla, and stir well.

 Pour the mixture over the puffed wheat and mix until the puffed wheat is evenly coated.

 Press into a 9×13-inch pan that has been lightly sprayed with non-stick spray.

Allow to cool and then cut into squares. 

Store in an airtight container to maintain ooey-gooey freshness!

*TIP*

If you put water on your spatula or spoon, it works better than butter on your hands while pressing flat in the pan.
