Puffed Wheat Squares
First up, let’s feast our eyes on the magnificent creation we’re going to make. Behold:
Now that we’ve whetted our appetite with that beauty, here’s what you’ll need to get started:
Ingredients:
- 4 cups puffed wheat
- 1 cup peanut butter (creamy or chunky, your choice!)
- 1 cup honey
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips (because why not!)
- Pinch of salt
Once you’ve gathered your lovely ingredients, it’s time to unleash your inner chef. Let’s rock and roll with the instructions:
Instructions:
- First, grab a large mixing bowl and toss in the puffed wheat. Give it a gentle stir just to make sure it’s feeling loved.
- Next, in a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the peanut butter, honey, and a pinch of salt. Keep stirring until it’s all melted together and smooth as a baby’s bottom.
- Once that glorious mixture is complete, remove it from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract. This is where the magic happens!
- Pour that heavenly peanut butter concoction over the puffed wheat in the mixing bowl. Get in there with a spatula and mix it all up until each puffed piece is coated. Don’t shy away from getting your hands dirty here!
- After thoroughly mixing, fold in the chocolate chips. Chocolate = happiness, am I right?
- Now, line a 9×13 inch baking dish with parchment paper (for easy removal later) and press the mixture evenly into the dish. This is a great two-for-one workout—don’t skip leg day while pressing!
- Let your creation cool for about an hour in the refrigerator. This is the hardest part, but it’s worth it!
- Once cooled, cut into squares and voila—there you have it! Your very own batch of Puffed Wheat Squares. Serve them up at parties or stash them away for a secret midnight snack.
Now you’re officially ready to impress your friends, family, or even just yourself. These treats are bound to bring joy—with a dash of sweet crunch—in every bite!
