Uncle Sam Brownie Cookies

Ingredients

• Add 1 box brownie mix your choice (and by box, I’d say 18-20 ounces)
• Add 2 heaping cups of Uncle Sam Original cereal
• 1/4 cup cinnamon (because cinn makes everything better)
• 1/4 cup chocolate chips (regular, mini, butterscotch, dark, peanut butter — your choice!  I used regular-sized chocolate)
• 1/3 cup water
• 2 tsp vanilla
• 1 tbsp vegetable oil
• 1 egg

Instructions

Stir it all up.  The consistency is surprisingly moist despite the deficit of liquids.  Heat your oven to 350 deg and lightly spray your cookie sheets with PAM (or similar).  

Use your teaspoon measure to dole out rounded teaspoons on the cookie sheet (approx 2″ apart).  Bake for about 11 minutes.  Remove and let cool completely. 

This yielded about 36 cookies.  

I loved the crunchy texture of these cookies and how heavenly and without any butter or a lot of oil!  My bestie said they tasted like soft cocoa-puffs in your mouth.  Her hubby said: “Thank you for the cookies. I don’t want to know what is in them – they are soooo good.”  I’d say that’s a pretty good compliment.   Give these cookies a go!
