Things you’ll need:

1. 2/3 cup unsalted butter
2. 2/3 cup corn syrup
3. 1 cup brown sugar
4. 1/2 cup cocoa powder , use 1/3 cup for a less chocolate-y flavor
5. 9 cups puffed wheat cereal

• Grease a 9×13 inch baking pan.
• Add the butter, corn syrup, brown sugar and cocoa powder to a large sauce pan over low-medium heat.
• Melt everything together while stirring gently.
• Bring the mixture to a gently boil for 1 minute, then remove from the heat.
• Stir in the puffed wheat cereal.
• Spoon the batter into the prepared pan and press down (I use a lightly greased spatula for this.
• Allow to firm up at room temperature for 60 minutes, then cut into bars.
