I love this recipe!!! I used to make these like crazy...they are SO good. The only thing I can add is that I only let it stay on the burner for about 90 seconds after it's reached a rapid boil. Something about the way it starts breaking down the sugar makes them too gooey otherwise.

ChefBeckyD said:LOL - I have a friend who makes these, and runs a toy truck wheel down through the middle of them while they are still warm, and calls them Road Kill Cookies.
Oh, that's nothin'. When I ran an after-school ministry we had an annual fall party. I served dog doo (no-bake cookies), cheesy fried eyeballs (Cheetos Cheese Balls), human brain (Jell-O in an anatomical mold), human heart (more Jell-O), human hand (yep, Jell-O), and bug juice (green Hi-C).
I also have a recipe for Kitty Litter Cake. It's served in a litter box (clean and unused for its original purpose, of course) with a litter scoop. There are appropriately shaped Tootsie Rolls Midgets pressed into and resting on top of the cake. It's wonderfully disgusting. :yuck:
