Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 12 cups of corn or rice chex style cereal
  • 1 cup of brown sugar (packed)
  • ⅓ cup butter (room temperature and cubed)
  • ½ cup of light corn syrup
  • ¼ cup of molasses
  • 2 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
  • ½ c. powdered sugar

Instruction

  • Coat a large bowl with some cooking spray and fill with the cereal. Set aside for a moment.
  • Spray cooking spray into a small saucepan (pot) and add the brown sugar, butter, light corn syrup, molasses, ground ginger, ground cinnamon and the salt. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly.
  • Once the mixture is boiling, stop stirring and allow to boil for 5 minutes.
  • Remove from heat and stir in the baking soda. The mixture will turn all foamy.
  • Add the vanilla extract and stir.
  • Quickly (and I mean quickly) pour the mixture over the bowl of cereal and mix well with a spatula to coat the cereal all over – don’t try to touch it – it’s HOT.
  • Sprinkle the powdered sugar over the bowl and mix again trying to coat all sides of the cereal. Use more if you need it. You won’t need less.
  • Spread the cereal out in a thin layer on a pan (maybe two) to allow it to cool and dry completely.
