Categories     Candy

Time 15m

Yield 2-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 cups sugar
1/2 cup margarine
1/2 cup milk
2 tablespoons cocoa
2 1/2 cups oatmeal

Steps:

  • Mix sugar and cocoa together.
  • Add milk.
  • Bring to a boil and boil for 1 1/2 minutes.
  • Remove from heat and add oatmeal.
  • Drop on wax paper with a teaspoon and allow to cool.
  • Eat!

Tips:

  • Choose the right oats: Use old-fashioned rolled oats for the best texture. Quick-cooking oats will result in a softer candy.
  • Don't overcook the oats: Cook the oats according to the package directions, but be careful not to overcook them. Overcooked oats will make the candy tough.
  • Use a heavy-bottomed pot: This will help to prevent the candy from burning.
  • Stir the candy constantly: Stirring the candy constantly will help to prevent it from sticking to the bottom of the pot and burning.
  • Let the candy cool completely: Before cutting the candy into bars, let it cool completely. This will help to prevent the candy from crumbling.

Conclusion:

Oatmeal candy is a delicious and easy-to-make treat that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With its chewy texture and sweet flavor, oatmeal candy is a perfect snack or dessert. Plus, it's a great way to use up leftover oats. So next time you're looking for a sweet treat, give oatmeal candy a try. You won't be disappointed!
