 Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
                       Chocolate Ingredients:
    1/2  c             Honey
    2/3  c             Butter
  1                    Egg
  1      ts            Vanilla or peppermint extract
  2      c             Whole wheat flour
    1/3  c             Cocoa powder
                       Grape-nuts(tm) cereal
                       Gingerbread Ingredients:
    1/4  c             Honey
    1/4  c             Molasses
    2/3  c             Butter
  1                    Egg
  7      c             Whole wheat flour
    1/2  ts            Ginger -- or to taste
    1/2  ts            Cinnamon -- or to taste
    1/2  ts            Cloves -- or to taste
                       Grape Nuts
                       Mix-ins:
                       Coconut
                       Chocolate chips
                       Butterscotch chips
                       Peanut butter chips

Microwave the honey until it bubbles, about 1 minute. Add the butter,
and the molasses, if any. Add the egg, mix well, then mix in all the
other stuff. Add mix-ins of your choice to some or all of the batter.

Chill 1 hour in the freezer or several hours in the fridge. Roll
dough logs of random length and the diameter of cat poops. Roll logs
in grape-nuts and bake at 350°F until done, 10 to 15 minutes.

Serve in a disposable cat litter box on a bed of grapenuts, with a
cat litter scoop. I hear you get lovely effects by decorating the box
and scoop with melted chocolate or pudding.

This recipe worked especially well at the halloween party where the
table was already decorated with plastic flies.

Notes:

There are two flavors-chocolate, and gingerbread.

The cookies are dense and not very sweet, this is necesssary so that
they will keep their shape during baking. If you use white flour or
sugar they may be tastier but they won't look like shit.
