Been posting this recipe for years on other forums but somehow missed this one.
Ladobe's Coyote Scat Munch'ems
This is a great one for around the campfire with your hunting pard(s) after a day of calling Old Wiley. (Don't laugh until you've seen and tried them.)
2 cups brown sugar
1 cup butter or margarine
1/4 cup white corn syrup
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
14-16 ounce bag of Cheetos
Small cook pot
Large Dutch oven
Aluminum foil
Wax paper
Cooking Spray (Pam)
Line Dutch oven with foil sprayed with cooking spray, pour in the whole bag of Cheetos and set aside. Mix sugar, butter and syrup in a suitable campfire or gas stove safe container (large empty can will do in a pinch). Melt & stir in fire or on stove, then bring mixture to a boil for about 5 minutes. Remove from fire, add baking soda and stir. Pour over Cheetos and quickly toss them to distribute mixture evenly. Cover oven with lid and set coals (or briquets) top and bottom to bake at about 250 degrees for 1 hour, stirring every 15 minutes. Pour out on waxed paper sprayed with cooking spray. Quickly separate Cheetos pieces. Let cool.
Goes great with a barley pop or your favorite beverage while enjoying the stars and fire... and of course swapping lies about the days hunt. And take plenty of fixings cause once your gang has tried them, one batch just won't be enough.
(You can try this at home by baking on a cookie sheet, but they just don't taste right with out the open fire, stars and days hunt gents.)
Enjoy,
Larry
