Protein Bar Recipe!
I always thought Cliff bars were far too expensive, and while looking in my cupboard a couple days ago I realized that I had protein powder and oats and went "huh, I wonder if I could make this" and didn't wait for an answer before trying. The answer ended up being yes!

Ingredients:
Dry:
14 oz quick oats
9 Servings of Protein Powder of choice
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ginger
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
Wet:
4 eggs
1/2 cup butter
1/3 cup sugar
3 tablespoons brown sugar
2 tablespoons baker's cocoa
~ 2 cups milk
Materials:
2 large bowls
pan greaser
deep-dish cookie pan
hand beater
spatula
knife
1 small bowl
Directions:
In Small bowl, measure out your protein powder until you have 9 servings total (this can be made from 3 servings of 3 different powders or all one powder or any combination). Then add all of your dray ingredients (left hand side) to a the smaller of your two big bowls with the powder mixture on top.
In the second bowl mix together all your other ingredients besides the milk. Once complete, add the first bowl to the second and mix, adding milk as you do to loosen the mixture. When it’s at the consistency of no-bake cookie batter, (or able to be stirred but not soft or runny) then pour it into your greased cookie sheet and spread it with your knife, and scrape it from the bowl with your spatula. Put it in the oven for 15 minutes and then let it cool. Cut sheet into even bars, and remove.

Ultimately most of my disappointments about The Rocketeer comics boil down to (1) disjointed empty plots running on vibes and (2) relentless sexist writing. It would be bizarre if the characters weren't at least a little sexist because of era, but that's not the same.
Even weirder is occasional smug jokey moments of look, this Modern (wink!) Woman hit someone over the head with a wrench, that'll sure show the menfolk. Which, okay. In actual real 1940 writers gave Lois Lane a tommy gun when they were feeling Feminist, so you're going to have to try a little harder than that. Does Betty have friends? Emotions outside of jealousy towards her man? Shhhh you're going to ruin the illusion that it's 1940. So, then, why am I reading this instead of an actual golden age comic? Those at least wouldn't chicken out from letting the really campy bits shine.
