No Bake Cookies

The easiest cookies on the planet. They are so tasty and delicious. My family requests them sometimes once a week. Needless to say we go through peanut butter and oatmeal often.


Here the butter, sugar, milk, and cocoa powder is being mixed together.


You want to bring it to a boil and then boil for 1 minute. Remove from heat


Add in the peanut butter and stir till it is melted in. My Husband likes it when there are chunks of peanut butter in it. He says its like a treat when he gets them.


Add the oatmeal


Stir it in till all the oatmeal is coated in the chocolate mixture.


Place them on wax paper and let cool. They can be enjoyed before they are cool but can be a little messy.

I like to have all my ingredients measured out so I can quickly add them. I have had many a failed batch because the mix boiled too long or too much or not enough oatmeal was added. It is easy though to half the recipe just in case you don't want that many cookies. (but who wouldn't want that much goodness lol)
