New recipes for old favorites (like French Fries!)

[*JillD*]

I think that sounds great! Now I just have to find some recipes, lol!

[gkashmira]

3 c - All Bran cereal

2.5 c - hot water

1.5 tsp - baking powder

1 box ‘Better Crocker Sweet Reward’ brownie mix *I usually can’t find this, so use whatever ff/lf brownie mix the in the store

 

Soak cereal in water for 5 min (will be pasty)

Add brownie mix and baking powder; mix well

Line muffin tins with linter or spray with Pam

Divide mixture into 24 muffins

Bake in preheated oven 350 degrees F for 20-25 min.

 

If you choose to add 1/2 bag of chocolate chips, add 1 pt. Otherwise – this makes a lot – you can stick them in the freezer and take them out one at a time for a treat. Really good with Cool Whip.
