Chocolate Puffed-Wheat Squares image

I used to make a batch of these every two days for my cafe. They were extremely popular and always sold out. A delicious and light chocolate square that packs well in lunches. I like to make for Halloween treats by simply scattering Reese's pieces over the top and pushing into top of square while still warm in pan. Enjoy!

I'm not a big fan of peanut butter, so I used Nutella instead. It was amazing! The chocolate and Nutella flavors were a perfect match.
