Unrealized Lil' Sweeties

Dream recipe for Lil' Sweeties

It came from a 50s style home and housekeeping magazine in a column:

"Looking to give a good friend of yours a good ribbing? Do you hate somebody and want them to pay for their existence? Then whip up a nice plate of Lil' Sweeties and let the fun begin!

Ingredients:

2 cups lard

1 cup sugar

1 package of cotton balls

Steps:

  1. Melt the lard in a pan saucepan

  2. When liquefied, mix in sugar, and stir until sugar is dissolved

  3. Throw in your cotton balls, and soak them in the mixture until completely saturated.

  4. Put the cotton balls in the freezer until solidified

  5. Plate and serve, preferably alongside a bowl of Jellywobbles ( a dish which was never explained in the dream).

And there you have it, a nice plate of Lil' Sweeties! Did you make these? You dumbass, this was a joke! Don't make these, you moron!"

They're some sort of fake confection that you give to your friends as a prank. I will attempt them someday.

A lot of people who know me well I've told about this at least once, so they know about it. I'm not going to be trying to trick anybody into eating them, so they likely won't swallow them. I would be astounded if they did or could

I might dip them in chocolate just to improve the delicious taste and of course not make it more likely someone will eat one.
