Cereals are a great ingredient to add in cookies and dessert bars. They add an interesting taste and also a bit of fiber in your diet.
If you have a large box of uneaten cereal, I recommend you to bake a small batch of cookies to test whether this is acceptable to your kid. Later on you can double or triple the recipe if your kid favored them.
Here is my basic recipe of Chocolate Cereal Biscuit using nestum (breakfast cereal) but you can fiddle around with it to fit your own
taste.
CHOCOLATE CEREAL BISCUIT
Yield : 40 biscuits
125 g soft butter
1 and 1/4 cup all purpose flour
80 g brown sugar
1 tablespoon cocoa powder
1/2 cup breakfast cereal (I use nestum)
1/4 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
Almond slices for decoration
METHOD
Cream butter, sugar and vanilla until creamy.
Combine flour, nestum, cocoa and baking powder in a mixing bowl.
Now add the butter mixture to the flour and forms into soft dough.
Pinch the dough into small ball, flatten and dot with almond slice.
Preheat oven @ 160 C. Place the cookies onto baking sheet.
Bale for 20 minutes and let sit in the pan for 5 minutes. Transfer onto rack to cool.
Store in an airtight container.

ReplyDeleteyummy and crunchy cookies, a perfect recipe to use the neglected cereal :)
ReplyDeleteFiber being added is more a matter of the type of cereal you use -- some of them are nothing but sugar and sugar and more sugar.
