-------- ------------ --------------------------------

1 c Carob powder
1 c Water
1/4 c Honey
1/4 c Peanut butter (smooth or cru
3/4 c Wheat germ
3/4 c Rolled oats
2 tb Dry milk powder
1/2 c Unsweetened shredded coconut
1 t Cinnamon (optional)
1/2 t Grated orange rind (optional

1 In a small saucepan -- combine the carob and water. Bring to a boil over low heat, stirring constantly
to prevent scorching. Add the honey and peanut butter and continue cooking for about 5 minutes
or until syrup is smooth and slightly thickened.
1 In a large bowl -- mix together the wheat germ, oats, milk powder, coconut, cinnamon, and orange
rind (if desired).
Pour about one cup of the carob syrup over the dry mixture -- or as much as is needed to make a
pliable -- dough-like consistency. Store the remainder in the refrigerator and use as an icing or to
make great milk shakes.
1 Pinch off pieces of the dough and roll each piece between your palms into 2-inch-long tubes about
the circumference of a fountain pen -- tapered at one end in the shape of a baseball bat. Roll the rest
into marble-sized balls.
