Special Recipes


POST’S BRAN FLAKES MACAROONS[1]

2½ cups Post’s Bran Flakes 1 cup cocoanut
3 tablespoons butter 3½ teaspoons baking powder
1 cup brown sugar 1 teaspoon vanilla
2 eggs ½ teaspoon salt

Mix the Post’s Bran Flakes with the sugar, melted butter, and baking powder. Beat the yolks and whites of the eggs separately and add to the batter with the cocoanut, salt and vanilla. Drop from the point of a teaspoon on a greased shallow pan and bake in a very hot oven (about 450° F.) until brown.

This will make about three dozen tiny macaroons.


POST TOASTIES MACAROONS

2 egg whites 1 teaspoon vanilla or almond extract
1 cup sugar
3 cups Post Toasties

To the stiffly beaten egg whites add the sugar gradually, then the vanilla, and, last, the Post Toasties. Drop from spoon onto a well-buttered pan and bake 20 minutes in a moderate oven (350° F.)

This recipe may be varied by substituting 1 cup shredded cocoanut for 1 cup Post Toasties.
