I made cookies today!! No-Bake cookies at that! Yummy stuff!
I got the recipe from here (aka, my favorite site ever!!)
These are all the things you need,
- 2 Cups sugar
- 1/2 Cup butter
- 1/2 Cup milk
- 1/3 Cup cocoa
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 3 Cups oats
- Peanut butter(optional)
After mixing 1-4 together in a sauce pan, bring to FULL boil and boil(stirring constantly) for 3 whole minutes.
Remove from heat and stirr in vanilla, oats, and peanut butter.
Drop onto wax paper and let set in fridge for 20-30 minutes.
This is very fast and easy and so so yummy.
I left out the peanut butter because we didn't have any. It's still good, but I would have liked to have had the peanutty taste in it. Oh well, next time.
(Just a word to the wise; don't buy butter that is hard to spread, this took FOREVER to melt in the pot)
See all those lumps?!
Stirring my cauldron of melted little boys and girls.
I'm kidding, I'm totally kidding.
Pretty much, anyway.
In goes the oats!
Now you're done!
Now to eat them all. They're all for me. No one else can have any. At all.
I used to make these all the time! Wherever I go the recipe from, they were called, "Chocolate Dream Cookies". Jake loved them. He would eat them until he became really sick. :) When I got diagnosed with Celiac, I couldn't eat oats anymore (unless they are expensive, gluten-free oats), so Jake is left in the dust dreaming about those cookies. :) Maybe I'll send him over!
