Puffed Wheat Cake

I'm sure just about everyone knows how to make puffed wheat cake, but sometimes it can turn out to be rock hard. This is a recipe that I've had luck with. And it's a quick and easy (and delicious) thing to make when you need something to put in a lunch. A little different from the norm, with a bit of honey and peanut butter in it.
  • 1/3 cup margarine
  • 1/2 cup corn syrup
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1 tsp honey
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 1 1/2 tbsp peanut butter
  • 2 tbsp cocoa
  • 8 cups wheat puffs

Melt butter in saucepan, add sugar, syrup, peanut butter, honey, vanilla and cocoa. Mix. When the mixture begins to bubble, remove from heat and add wheat puffs. Mix well. Put in greased 9 x 13 inch pan and press down firmly. Cut into squares once cooled and enjoy.

Just seasonally for the farming hubby so far. I dread the amount of school lunches that will need to be made yet! You must have your fair share. ;)
