tootsie

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

If this is the answer, I'm afraid I cannot explain it.

(Other definitions for tootsie that I've seen before include "Foot or toe (childish)" , "A child's foot?" , "Funnily enough, foot" , "Foot (jocular)" , "Foot or toe - I set, too (anag)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
