A Need...

Felicia is hoping to have 'puffed wheat' squares served at the funeral on Sunday. This was one of Loren's favourite snacks/desserts. Those in charge of the preparations have not been able to find any...

If you're able, would you please bake a 9 x 13 pan or two and deliver them to the church on Sunday between 1 & 2 p.m.?

Thank-you so much.

Becky (for Felicia)

  1. I would love to bring some puff wheat bars. Can you post the recipe (or email) that Loren enjoyed the most. No one in the US ever makes them.

  2. This is the basic recipe from the "Mennonite Treasury" with just a few "additions" from me - I don't know if it was Loren's favorite but there aren't alot of variations on this one:

    Puffed Wheat Cake

    1/3 Cup Butter
    Handful of Marshmallows
    1/2 Cup Corn Syrup
    1 Cup Brown Sugar
    1 tsp. Vanilla
    2 Tbsp. Cocoa

    8 Cups Puffed Wheat

    Melt butter and marshmallows in saucepan, add sugar, syrup, cocoa and vanilla. When this syrup bubbles - let cook 1 minute and pour over puffed wheat. Mix and put in 9 x 12" pan. Press down well with a spoon (or put waxed paper on top and use your hand!). Chill. Cut in squares.

  3. Thank you Pat for the recipe.

    Becky, I will bring two pans of puffed wheat squares to the church.

    Praying for each of you.
