Alison's Late Night No-Bake Cookies
One of my favorite and fairly quick cookies to make late at night when the chocolate cravings hit hard and can't be easily satiated are No-Bake Cookies. They're a relatively healthy and filling cookie due to the quick oats and are easy to pack for a school day snack for dear hubby the next day. I won't tell you the nickname we've given them until after you've tried them for yourselves! (Thayne says if you can't seem to guess what it is, then you don't know me well enough.) This recipe comes from an old ward compassionate recipe book.
2 cups sugar
1/2 cup baking cocoa
1/2 cup milk
1 stick margarine
1/2 cup peanut butter (chunky or creamy is just fine)
3 cups quick oats
Combine the sugar, cocoa, milk, and margarine into a saucepan. Put on medium heat, stir often and bring to a boil. Take off of heat and stir in peanut butter and then the oats. Drop by spoonfuls onto cookie sheets covered with wax paper. Cool in refrigerator. Eat up!
