Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients: Fresh ingredients will give your cereal squares the best flavor and texture. If possible, use organic ingredients to avoid pesticides and herbicides.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make the cereal squares tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough will help the cereal squares hold their shape better in the oven.
  • Bake the cereal squares until they are golden brown: The cereal squares are done baking when they are golden brown on top and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Let the cereal squares cool completely before cutting them: Cutting the cereal squares while they are still warm will cause them to crumble. Let them cool completely on a wire rack before cutting them into squares.
