MAKE NO BAKE COOKIES!!

Yep.

chocolate peanut butter oatmeal no bake cookies!

I have experimented with these and recently I decided that my latest combination was the very best so I thought I’d share one of my secrets on my blog!

Here is my recipe:

Ingredients

1/2 cup (1 cube) real butter

2 cups granulated sugar

1/2 cup milk

1/3 cup cocoa powder

2 tsp. vanilla extract

3/4 cup peanut butter

3 cups rolled quick oats

1-2 T water (optional)

……………………………………………………………………..

{I am sharing a tip on the oats that I believe makes the perfect texture cookie}

I have some “ROLLED QUICK OATS” that are really small in texture. I think this makes the cookies so much better and tender. If you have OLD FASHIONED oats, you can also make the “ROLLED QUICK OATS” yourself by just lightly blending the oats to a finer texture and smaller pieces. I will be worth the extra step. Trust me. I have done this!

I actually prefer this method in any oatmeal recipe cookies or cakes! 🙂

Make your own rolled quick oats!

Directions

Line 1 0r 2 large cookie sheets with wax paper.

Melt butter in a medium sauce pan.Add sugar, milk,and cocoa and mix well over medium heat while bringing to a rolling boil. Continue to stir and boil for 1-2 minutes. Once boiled, remove from the heat and add in the peanut butter and vanilla until peanut butter is melted/mixed in well. Finally add your “perfect texture oats” slowly adding less or more according to your preferred texture. You can also add a tablespoon or two of water if you think the texture needs it. Drop cookies onto wax paper with a cookie or ice cream scoop. Once cookies have cooled slightly on wax paper they are ready to ENJOY!
