I had a sudden craving for an old favourite, and since I happened to have the ingredients I went out and cooked it.

The recipe is on a scrap of paper I keep expecting to lose, so I'm going to shove it up here. That way I can't misplace it and the rest of the world can use it if they know any weight-watchers they want to taunt ;)

It's not the most exact recipe you'll ever see, but given that most of my cooking is done more along the lines of "Add some butter, heat for a while, stir in some flour" I reckon it's pretty good.

• 1 tin condensed milk
• 3oz butter
• 5oz sugar
• 1 tablespoon golden syrup
• A good 3oz rice crispies

As you can see, the ingredients are basically fat and sugar mixed with a bit of cereal. This really isn't a health food...

So: Melt butter in saucepan. Add sugar, syrup, and condensed milk. Stir and heat until sugar is dissolved and the mix is burning to the pan (it always does this). Stir constantly to stop it burning more than the bare minimum, until it goes a nice toffee-brown.

Add rice crispies, stir well, pour into tin. Leave to cool, refrigerate, cut into squares, eat.

I can never eat more than two squares in one go, it's VERY sickly stuff. But it's VERY nice, too...
