Recipe from Grassland employee, Todd Andrus, who baked with his Great Grandmother Reynwald whenever he visited her.

12cupsunsweetened Puffed Wheat cereal
2cupspacked brown sugar
11/2cupdark karo syrup
2tablespoonsof unsalted Grassland butter
1cupevaporated milk
⅓cupgranulated sugar
1tspcinnamon
Instructions
Combine butter, brown sugar, and dark karo syrup in a saucepan and bring to a boil.
Add cinnamon, sugar, and evaporated milk to the boiling mixture.
While boiling, open Puffed Wheat Cereal and pour into a large bowl.
Once the boiling mixture has reached the ‘hardball’ phase, or 212 F, pour into large bowl of Puffed Wheat and coat.
Form the candy mixture into ball shapes, and let cool on parchment paper. (Hint: If you wet your hands every couple of balls, the mixture won’t stick to your fingers.)
