At Christmas time my aunt would make these and us kids would fill our pockets and eat them at play. These are dime size, hard and crunchy. This is a large recipe and makes several ice cream pails full.
Ingredients:
3 cups corn syrup
3 cups sugar
2 cups cereal cream
3 cups soft margarine
1 tablespoon ginger
2 tablespoons baking powder
1 teaspoon star anise
2 teaspoons cinnamon
16 cups flour
Directions:
1. Mix as cookie dough.
2. Roll into thin ropes about the size of your pointer finger and cut into 3/4 lengths.
3. You may want to freeze the ropes so as to make it easier to cut.
4. Bake 15 to 20 minutes at 350 deg. F. on large cookie sheets.
