1 cup quick cooking oats
In a large bowl mix well the next 5 ingredients
1/2 cup shortening or cube butter softened

This is arecipe that I think the elderly will like if I serve to them:)
I'm drooling... Okay, not really, but my mouth is really watering!
Fun! I do like those first steps that have you pretty much cooking the oats with that hot water, or at least softening them. Pretty neat! I might try this soon--I have guests coming next week and this might be an interesting dessert to serve. Thanks for linking to Food on Fridays, Hazel!
