Bear Droppings (Recipe) (5)

Here is quick and easy treat I learned to make years ago! A surefire way to ensure the kids destroy the house trying to burn off the "sugar rush"!

2 cups white sugar
1/2 cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 cup butter

- combine the above four ingredients and bring to a boil. Boil for 5 minutes. Mo more, no less. Too little or too long a boiling period will either result in "constipation" (dry, crumbly and hard) or "diarrhea" (too soft and impossible to pick up) treats.

Remove from boil and immediately add 3 cups of oatmeal and 3 tablespoons of cocoa. Mix thotoughly and spoon out individual "bear droppings" onto waxed paper. Let set and then enjoy.

For even more added interest to the droppings, nuts, coconut, raisins, etc. can be added (just reduce the amount of oatmeal a bit)

LOL! Yup,...only "cure" I could find to quit eating them was beer!

I hope all is well! Lord,...has it been dead in here today,...(back to work for me tomorrow!)

are these similar to those Australian anzac cookies?
