When I was a little girl, my grandmother and I used to whip up this no-bake snack to munch on while playing rummy, shares Tammy Schroeder of Aitkin, Minnesota. I love to throw a batch together and remember those special times. Ingredients:
1/2 cup butter, cubed |
1/2 cup milk |
1 cup sugar |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
25 caramels |
3 cups quick-cooking oats |
1 cup flaked coconut |
Directions:
1. In a heavy saucepan, bring butter and milk to a boil; add sugar, vanilla and salt. Cook for 1 minute. Add caramels and stir until melted, about 4 minutes. Stir in oats and coconut.
2. Drop by heaping tablespoonfuls onto waxed paper. Let stand until set. Yield: 4-1/2 dozen.
