Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Light corn syrup can be substituted for the honey.
  • tip 2
    Want additional chocolate flavor without the gluten? Try substituting chocolate bite-size squares of crisp corn cereal for the oven toasted rice cereal for a delicious twist.
  • tip 3
    Cooking Gluten Free? Always read labels to make sure each recipe ingredient is gluten free. Products and ingredient sources can change.
