Default UDF evaluate string output

Function myUDF() As Boolean
Dim myStr As String
myStr = "2+2=4"
myUDF = Application.Evaluate(myStr)
End Function

Sub test()
MsgBox myUDF
End Sub

I'm using a UDF to check the math content of text within a cell
Example: if the cell contains "blah 2+2=4 blah" my UDF will return "2+2=4"
How can I get excel to evaluate my new string so that the output of the UDF
is TRUE or FALSE?
Thanks
