It has been hot all over the country. We rarely see the 90’s here in the mountains, but this summer is different. Yesterday we were enjoying 97 degrees and ate a cold dinner. But, I had a major hankering for a cookie. I certainly was not going to turn on the oven to bake. So, No Bake Cookies fit the bill.
I probably have not made these since last summer. And they are so yummy. My husband likes them really cold out of the fridge. I like them first thing in the morning with my coffee.
Make these for your next BBQ or work potluck, you will be glad you did.
No Bake Cookies
4oz butter
1/2 cup milk
2 cups sugar
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
1/4 cup peanut butter
1 tsp vanilla extract
3 cups quick cook oats
1. Combine butter, milk, sugar, and chocolate chips in a medium sauce pan. Bring to boil for 1 minute.
2. Remove from heat and stir in peanut butter and vanilla extract. Stir until smooth.
3. In a large bowl, pour chocolate mixture over oats. Stir to combine.
4. Drop by large spoonfuls on to wax paper. Enjoy when hardened.
Enjoy your summer treat!
Great recipe! I've been looking and experimenting on no-bake cookies for years...this is the best!
ReplyDeleteThese are always interesting to cook here in the South. The humidity in the summer makes them so that they usually won't harden, so I pretty much have to make them in the winter..
ReplyDeleteTake these over the top by adding pecans and/or coconut.... trust me...!
