Chocolate Yummies
"This is from an early nineteen sixties Betty Crocker Cooky Book that I have of my Mom's. Can tell the recipes we loved by the stained pages. I remember making these by myself in my early teens. Have changed to suit our taste through the years. If you like chocolate and coconut you will be a fan of these, the oats are throw in so seems healthy:-). Also good during those hot weather Christmas times can have in Florida, no oven to heat up the house. Must be kept refrigerated."

Only had dark chocolate chips in the house and this recipe turned out wonderful! I didn't think that I'd like the combination of oats and coconut, but it worked very well. Thank you Goat mom! Made for PAC Spring '09.
RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
Married 31 years. Live in rural area with one old mare and a small herd of Nubian dairy goats. I love cooking old favorites and trying new recipes. Mostly now just cooking for two but still host large groups several times a year. I've collected cookbooks for years when traveling. I have all my Mom and Mother in Laws cookbooks also. I try and write in my cookbooks any changes, when first tried and any other info that my daughter might enjoy later. Alot of my favorite moments center around food, holiday preparation and family time through the years. Recently my daughter has become interested in cooking more and I enjoy her new recipes and creations. My husband doesn't cook but helps in prep as directed and is the man for kitchen clean up.
