| How about a joke dish for your Halloween party!
You will need:
- A new cat litter pan
- New plastic litter scoop
- Large box or two of grapenuts type cereal
- Your favorite no-bake cookie recipe
Directions:
Pour the grapenuts into the pan. Drop no-bake cookie dough into the grapenuts. Once they are semi-hard, roll them in the grapenuts if you want. Add the scoop for people to serve themselves.
My no-bake recipe:
- 1 stick of butter or margarine
- 2 cups of sugar
- 3 tablespoons of cocoa
- 1/2 cup of evaporated milk
- 1/2 cup of peanut butter
- 3 cups or rolled oats
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla
Combine the first four ingredients in a sauce pan and bring to a boil. Cook for one minute. This can also be done in the microwave but make sure the bowl is big to prevent "boil over". Remove from heat, stir in the peanut butter, the vanilla, and the rolled oats and mix until it shines. Drop
on to waxed paper or into your grapenuts. Let them cool.
Enjoy!
