About my Blog

It all started when I was packing the contents of my home and moving to a much smaller kitchen. Where will I keep all my recipes? What if I lose the box that has all the loose notepapers with recipes scratched and handwritten on them? I know...I'll put them on the computer, so that no matter where I might be, I will have access to them. While I'm at it, why not share it with the rest of the world? Hope you will enjoy my little recipe blog.

We call these Frogs

My Aunt Babe used to make these chocolate balls covered in coconut.  I am not sure why she called them Frogs, but that's what they are.  OMG, these are sooo good!

Ingredients
2 cups of brown sugar
1/2 cup margarine
1/2 cup milk

Mix above ingredients in large pot.  Bring to a rolling boil, then take off the burner.

Add the following:
3 cups of quick rolling oats (oatmeal)
1/2 cup cocoa
1/2 teaspoon vanilla (okay I confess...I use 1 capful (yes, the cap off the vanilla bottle - ha!)

Mix well.  Let cool until you can comfortably touch and not burn yourself.  (about 10 - 15 mins)
Drop spoonfuls into a bowl of coconut.  Completely cover in coconut...roll into balls.
Place in fridge...they taste absolutely delicious when they are cold.

Makes about 3 dozen frogs.
