cinnamon 1 tsp ground ginger 1/4 tsp baking soda 1/2 tsp ground
cloves 1 beaten egg 1 1/2 tsp vanilla Miniature semisweet chocolate

In a saucepan, combine butter, brown sugar, and corn syrup. Cook and
stir over medium heat until butter is melted and sugar is dissolved.
Pour into a large mixing bowl. Cool 5 minutes.

Mix flour, cinnamon, ginger, soda and cloves. Add egg and vanilla to
butter mixture; mix well. Add flour mixture; beat till well mixed.
Divide dough in half. Cover; chill 2 hours or OVERNIGHT.

For each bear, shape dough into one 1-inch ball, one 3/4 inch ball,
six 1/2 inch balls, and five 1/4 inch balls.

On an ungreased cookie sheet, flatten the 1-inch ball to 1/2 inch for
the body. Attach the 3/4 inch ball for the head, and flatten to 1/2
inch. Attach the 1/2 inch balls for arms, legs, and ears. Place 1 of
the 1/4 inch balls on the head for the nose. Arrange the remaining
1/4 inch balls atop the ends of the arms and legs for paws. Use
miniature chocolate pieces for the eyes and navel.

Bake in a 350 degree oven for 8 to 10 minutes, or until done. Remove
and cool on a wire rack.

If desired, pipe on bow ties with Decorator Icing.

Weight loss hints and tips

If you really want to lose weight and also increase your overall physical condition, then you should make plans to commence a carefully designed healthy nutrition system. In a perfect world, this must comprise five helpings of fruit & veg daily and take in the right combination of protein, carbs and fats.

When chosing foods for dieting, dieters usually become obsessed with retail store and branded foods labelled as 'low fat'. To do this is frequently wrong, insofar as a food product might just be very low in fats, but still much too high in carbs & calories.

When deciding on a dietary regime, the most important step is to make efforts to reduce intake of salt, fats and refined carbohydrates.
