Time 15m

Yield 30-40 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 6

Ingredients

2 cups sugar
4 tablespoons cocoa
1/2 cup margarine (I prefer country crock)
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup peanut butter
2 cups oatmeal (use the one minute oatmeal)

Steps:

Combine sugar, cocoa, margarine and milk in saucepan over medium heat (I always go a notch over medium-but do not do med/high or it will burn).
Once it comes to a rapid boil, boil for 3 minutes EXACTLY.
Remove from heat and add peanut butter and oatmeal (SEE Tip#2).
Spoon drop on wax paper and let cool.
Store in airtight container.
Tip#1: have all ingredients measured out before you start.
Tip#2: sometimes weather can effect the outcome. It may require less or more oatmeal -- add oatmeal a little at a time till you get the right consistency-not to runny and not too thick.

Tips:

Selecting the Right Ham: Choose a fully cooked ham that is labeled "Country Ham" or "Carolina Ham" for authentic flavor.
Soaking the Ham: For a moister ham, soak it in cool water for at least 12 hours or overnight. This helps remove excess salt and rehydrates the meat.
Glazing the Ham: Use a combination of brown sugar, honey, and spices to create a glaze that will caramelize and add sweetness to the ham.
Slow and Steady Cooking: Bake the ham at a low temperature (325°F) for optimal tenderness and juiciness. This allows the flavors to meld and develop.
Resting the Ham: Before carving, let the ham rest for 15-20 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more flavorful and succulent ham.

Conclusion:

With its rich history and unique flavor profile, Carolina ham is a Southern delicacy that is sure to impress your guests. Whether you're preparing a classic glazed ham or experimenting with more creative recipes, these tips and recipes will guide you towards a delicious and memorable Carolina ham experience. So gather your ingredients, preheat your oven, and get ready to indulge in the delightful flavors of this Southern specialty.
