My Delicious Homemade No-Bake Cookies! {Recipe}

Every once in a while, I get a craving for some chocolate! {Who doesn't?!} I'm a little picky though..I don't like just any chocolate...nope - I like delicious, melt in your mouth, peanut butter-chocolatey goodness!! And it needs to be easy to get. That is when I reach for my favorite cookie recipe!


Yum, right? I know :) Well I'll get to the good part - the recipe! Here it is:

INGREDIENTS:

Boiling Pot:
  1. 1/2 C Milk
  2. 1 Stick of Butter
  3. 2 C Sugar
  4. 1 tsp. Salt
Mixing Bowl:
  1. 3 C Old Fashioned Oats (you dont want to get the quick oats because you dont want them to get soft)
  2. 6 Tbsp Hershey's Cocoa
  3. 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
  4. 1/2 C Peanut Butter
DIRECTIONS:
  1.  Put the milk and butter together in a large pot on the stove. Heat until the butter is melted.
  2. Add the Sugar and Salt and bring to a boil.
  3. Let the ingredients boil for 1 minute. Remove from heat.
  4. Add the oats, cocoa, vanilla and peanut butter. 
  5. Stir ingredients together and scoop onto cookie sheet. Let cool and enjoy!
These are perfect for when you remember that you need to bring a dish to that Christmas party that you are leaving for in 30 minutes! Its quick and easy to make - it only takes about 10 minutes!

 I would love to hear your feedback if you give these a try!

  1. I'll have to try your recipe. I lived on these in college...we used to take them back from the cafeteria in our backpacks! I tried making them recently and wasn't super happy with the results...so I can't wait to try this!
