"Litterbox" Cookies
There are two flavor cookies: chocolate and gingerbread. The cookies
are dense and not very sweet, this is necessary so that they will
keep their shape during baking. If you use white flour or sugar they
may be tastier but they won't look like "xxxx".
Chocolate ingredients:
1/2 cup honey
2/3 cup (1 and 1/3 stick) butter or margarine
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla or peppermint extract
2 cups whole wheat flour
1/3 cup cocoa powder
Grape-Nuts cereal
Gingerbread ingredients:
1/4 cup honey
1/4 cup molasses
2/3 cup(1 and 1/3 stick) butter or margarine
1 egg
2 and 1/3 cups whole wheat flour
spices--ginger, cinnamon, and cloves to taste (1/2 tsp each)
Grape-Nuts cereal
Mix-ins:
coconut
chocolate chips
butterscotch chips
peanut butter chips
Microwave the honey till it bubbles (about 1 minute). Add the
butter, and the molasses, if any. Add the egg, mix well, then mix in
all the other stuff. Add mix-ins of your choice to some or all of
the batter.
Chill 1 hour in the freezer or several hours in the fridge. Roll
dough logs of random length and the diameter of cat poops. Roll logs
in grape-nuts and bake at 350 degrees till done (10 to 15 minutes).
Serve in a disposable cat litter box on a bed of grapenuts, with a
cat litter scoop. |
