No Bake Cookies are so good for lots of reasons. 1-chocolate 2-peanut butter 3-oatmeal 4-no baking...need I say more?? They are full of sugar, but so good. I remember making these cookies in Jr. High home ec class....and we totally messed them up. Anyway, don't cut the sugar of else they won't really set up-trust me, I've tried. :) Enjoy!
No Bake Cookies
2 C sugar
1/2 C butter
1/2 C butter
1/2 C milk
1/4 C cocoa
1/2 C peanut butter
1 tsp vanilla
3 C quick rolled oats
Combine sugar, butter, milk and cocoa in a sauce pan. Bring to a complete, rolling boil and boil for at least one minute. Remove from heat and then add peanut butter, vanilla and rolled oats. Stir until well-mixed. Drop onto waxed paper and let cool. Can place cookies onto a cookie sheet and place in refridgerater to speed up the cooling process.
*Tip: If you don't measure the ingredients EXACTLY, especially the sugar, they won't set up well. Also, if you don't let the mixture boil long or hot enough, it won't set up. Make sure you do these two things to get a good, solid cookie at the end!

SWEET! Do you know of, or have you tried any peanut butter free ones for those with allergies? I have a recipe or two if you're interested. They use coconut instead-
