NESQUIK Puffed Wheat Squares

August 3, 2017 by Sarah 23 Comments

NESQUIK Puffed Wheat Squares

Can you remember the very first baked good you made as a child? Was it a cake? Cupcakes? Brownies? Mine was Rice Krispy squares, my mom’s favourite because it didn’t actually involve any baking but produced the same sweet, crowd-pleasing end result that turning on the oven did.

Today, my favourite tasty treat to make with my kids are NESQUIK Puffed Wheat Squares. Akin to the Rice Krispy square, these are made with all-natural puffed wheat and flavoured with NESQUIK Chocolate Powder! The kids just love these soft, chewy chocolately bars!

NESQUIK Puffed Wheat Squares

A hybrid combination of corn syrup and melted mini marshmallows brings the perfect amount of ooey and gooey to this yummy snack. Quick and easy to make, these NESQUIK Puffed Wheat Squares are sure to be as much of a hit in your kitchen as they are in mine!

    I didn’t experience baking when I was a kid but I remember my aunt bake brownies for us. It’s a great experience to help her baking.

    Oh yes! I used to have wheat squares too! We’d have honey syrup for sugar to make it yummy and sticky!Sometimes, we also used roasted and grinded millet. I love it! Yuum!
