If you just read the article titled, Scoop on Poop, you have learned all about the technique of “reading” cat poop like a fortune teller reads a deck of tarot cards. I figure that while you are in the groove, you might as well learn how to make cat poop cookies too :-)… and it’s PURRRRR-fect for a Halloween Party.
Recipe For Cat Poop Cookies
There are several common recipes for this delicious gourmand treat. Of course, I am not sure you will find any of them in Martha Stewart’s cookbook, despite her love of Himalayans.
Chocolate Ingredients:
- ½ cup honey
- 2/3 cup (1 and 1/3 stick) butter, margarine or lard

- 2/3 cup (1 and 1/3 stick) butter, margarine or lard
- 1 egg
- 2 and 1/3 cups whole wheat flour
- spices: ginger, cinnamon and cloves to taste

Extra Additives for that truly unique look:
- coconut (tapeworms)
- chocolate chips
- butterscotch chips
- peanut butter chips
- cooked spaghetti or ramen noodles (roundworms)

- M&M’s™
Directions:
- Microwave the honey just until it bubbles slightly -about 1 minute.
- Add the butter and the molasses to the honey.
- Add the egg.
- Mix well.
- Now add all the other ingredients including any “Extras” you have chosen to include.
- Chill 1 hour in the freezer or several hours in the fridge.
- Next, roll dough logs about the diameter of cat poops. Make them various lengths of course.
- Roll the logs in grape-nuts and bake at 350 degrees till done – between 10 to 20 minutes.
- Serve in a new disposable cat litter box on a bed of Grape-Nuts™ cereal, with a new, unused cat litter scoop.
- You can get a lovely effect by dipping the scoop in melted chocolate or pudding.
- Mixing brown sugar with the Grape-Nuts™ makes the cookie sweeter while also adding a realistic icky look.
