This is what the cookies look like right out of the pot. I wanted to get a picture of them once they had cooled and set up. TOO LATE! They were gone. Sheesh! 😉
Anyway, I’ve been making these cookies since I was old enough to be able to operate the stove. They are easy, quick to set up and very inexpensive to make. Can’t beat that!
No Bake Cookies
2 Cups Sugar
1/2 cup milk
1 stick butter
4 tablespoons cocoa
Cook over medium low heat, stirring constantly, until sugar is dissolved and butter melted. Cook one minute more then remove from heat.
Add:
1 cup peanut butter
3 cups oats.
Mix throughly; drop on wax paper to cool and set.
It is much easier to stir in the oats if the peanut butter has been added and stirred in first.
Definitely a fav here, especially on Mondays when I have a “sew in”. Nothing better than chocolate, coffee, needle, thread and good company.
They look yummy I’m going to try them but using less sugar ( to be kind to my diabetes lol ). The oat really makes it a nice alternative to normal commercial biscuits/cookies. Thanks for sharing. X
Let me know how they turn out with less sugar Fab. I should probably try to make them with less sugar too! 🙂
