Author Notes: I love the idea of cookies in cereal. If you have 'failed' macarons.....feetless, cracked, and otherwise useless.....here is a GREAT recipe to put them to use, rather than in the bin! - Kitchen Butterfly

Serves 4

1 cup rolled oats
¼ cup oat bran
4 tbsp brown sugar
2 tablespoons cream
2 tablespoons vegetable (canola) oil
Chopped chocolate, to taste
Macarons/chopped cookies, to taste
Vanilla yoghurt, to serve

Preheat oven to 180ºC. In a medium bowl, mix the rolled oats, oat bran and sugar.Make a well in the centre and pour in cream and oil and combine well.
Transfer to a shallow baking tray and bake for 15 – 20 minutes, stirring every 5 minutes till ready.
Once baked, remove and allow cool.
When cool, add the chopped macs and chocolate. Store in an airtight container until ready to use.
To serve, place some oat crunch in a bowl/glass and alternate with vanilla yoghurt.
