    How about a joke dish for your Halloween party!
    Cat littler candy
    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

    Sugar Skulls

    2 cups powdered sugar
    1/8 cup granulated sugar
    powdered egg white with water
    1 tablespoon light corn syrup
    1/2 teaspoon vanilla
    1/3 cup corn starch

    Decorations:
    food coloring
    powdered sugar
    water
    fine paintbrush

    Sift powdered sugar. Add granulated sugar. Set aside.

    In large bowl, mix powdered egg white and water according to package
    instructions, to make equivalent of one egg white. Add vanilla and
    corn
    syrup, and mix well. Gradually add sugar into egg white mixture,
    combining well. Use your hands to form into a ball.

    Generously sprinkle board or table with cornstarch. Knead cornstarch
    into mixture until it is shaped into a smooth, manageable ball. At
    this
    point, you may wrap the mixture tightly in plastic wrap and
    refrigerate
    until ready to use (it will last for many weeks).

    When ready, shape into skulls, place onto waxed paper, and allow to
    dry
    thoroughly. Once dried, you may decorate.

    To decorate the sugar skulls, make a colored icing by combining
    powdered sugar with small amounts of water and food coloring. Then
    use the
    icing to paint the skulls.

    While wet, sprinkle the icing with colored sugars or other
    decorations.
    If the skull is in remembrance of a loved one, write that person's
    name
    across the forehead.

    Yield: About 15 skulls

    What me and my daughter and some friends like to do is once again
    go up riding in the mountains with plastic trash bags and look for pine nuts
    and of course our fingers get sticky but we put dirt on our hands after we are
    done picking them and its every fall we do this,we go home get a pot a used one
    because the pine gum won't come off the pan when you put the pine nuts in,put
    some water in the pot not a whole bunch just enough to boil them and put a little salt
    in with them to give it flavor, boil for about 15 to 20 mins. You can't over cook
    them or they will explode in the pot. If you can't get pine gum off your hands put a
    little butter on your hands and fingers, Have fun, good eating.
