My Grandma Hunt is almost 90 years old, notes Lucile Proctor of Panguitch, Utah. Whenever she comes over, she makes her famous Puffed Wheat Balls by the dozen. Her 82 grandchildren and 168 great-grandchildren all love them. Ingredients:
12 cups puffed wheat cereal |
2 cups packed brown sugar |
1 cup light corn syrup |
2 tablespoons butter |
1 cup evaporated milk |
1/3 cup sugar |
Directions:
1. Place cereal in a large bowl; set aside.
2. In a heavy saucepan, bring brown sugar and corn syrup to a boil. Add butter. Combine evaporated milk and sugar; add to boiling mixture. Cook until candy thermometer reads 240° (soft-ball stage). Pour over cereal and stir to coat. Shape into 2-in. balls. Yield: 2-1/2 to 3 dozen.
