Corn syrup: bad or just evil?

Anyway, I have a recipe for havregrynskage that calls for 1/4 c corn syrup.  Would molasses be a good alternative?  Also a little more proper, perhaps? 

Then it would be more like granola cakes.  Holy crap I am a genius.   :fap:

Havregrynskage

1 stick (8 tblspoons) butter
1/4 cup sugar
2 cups rolled oats
1/4 cup corn syrup (OR??)

Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Stir in sugar, don't let anything burn okay?  Then dump in the oatmeal, cook until golden brown (5-10 minutes).  Remove from heat, add mystery sticky stuff.  Pack into muffin pans.  Chill.

I've had good results throwing on a little jam or chocolate before they're fully cooled, for extra tasty.  Probably very good with vanilla ice cream.

regular corn syrup is fine. It's high-fructose corn syrup that's abnormally bad for you.

Some yahoo yelled at me, saying 'GIVE ME LIBERTY OR GIVE ME DEATH', and I thought, "I'm feeling generous today.  Why not BOTH?"

Ohhhhh...yeah. 


Still, in the interest of argument, honey or molasses would still work yes?

I'm thinking with molasses and cinnamon you'll get like a giant oatmeal cookie.  :fap:

I'm hoping that muffin papers will work because I'm tired to washing my tins out.  If not, paper is edible...

I must try this. Especially with the molasses idea.

ZOMG I love molasses.

MUST COOK.

I don't know if I'd use molasses.
It is a completely different thing than white corn syrup.

May turn out too bitter/heavy

There's an entire chapter about aquavit.  Maybe later I'll pull some good quotes.
