Valentine's Day Kisses




2 cups brown sugar
1 cup butter
1-3/4 cup light corn syrup
1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
1 (12 oz) box of crisp rice cereal

1. Put crisp rice cereal in large bowl and set aside.

2. In heavy saucepan mix brown sugar, butter, and light corn syrup. Stir with wooden spoon constantly. Bring to a boil. Boil together for 3 minutes. Remove from heat.

3. Add sweetened condensed milk. Stir to incorporate well. Put back on heat and while stirring bring to a boil. Boil for 3 minutes stirring constantly.

4. Pour the carmel over the crisp rice cereal. Stir until cereal is evenly coated.

5. Grease a funnel (First time only). Pack the crisp rice cereal mixture into the funnel. Turn over and pour out onto greased wax paper. Continue doing so until all of the mixture is used up. (I made about 11 using a medium funnel).

6. Let cool and set up. (couple of hours)

7. Wrap with saran wrap and then with tin foil, to resemble Hershey's kisses.

8. Tape, glue, or slide in tinfoil a paper with a saying such as I Love You on top of the kiss.
