instructions to make cat poop cookies

Step 1

In a microwaveable bowl, add the honey and microwave it until it bubbles, this may take up to 1 minute.  

Step 2

Stir in the butter, egg, and molasses. Beat until smooth.

Step 3

Stir in the cinnamon, ginger, cloves, and flour until all of them are combined.

Step 4

Now, it’s time to get creative! Add exciting additions of your choice: coconut, ramen, chocolate chips, peanuts…you know…to make it look more “real.”

Step 5

Chill the dough until firm.

Step 6

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Step 7

Roll the dough into logs. About 3/4 inches in diameter and cut into pieces about the length of cat poop. I have no exact measurement for this, so use your imagination.

Step 8

Roll the pieces in the cereal, place them on a cookie sheet, and bake for about 13 minutes. Allow it to cool down.

Serve these in a new, clean dishpan, on a bed of grape nuts with a new, and clean scooper. Feeling creative? Add plastic flies!

Another added effect is to mix in coconut or ramen noodles. For a startling effect, add melted chocolate to the scooper.
