Chocolate + Peanut Butter + Pot

Hey Everyone!

Happy Sunday!

Today happens to be a first on this blog: I'm sharing my very first recipe! I LOVE to cook and bake, but I usually don't share my creations online. However, today I had a huge sweet tooth, so I decided to make some no-bake cookies.

Oh.My.Gosh.

These cookies are amazing! You must try them. :) They are really easy and fast too, because they don't require the oven at all (you actually boil them. Sounds odd, but it tastes good.)

I already had all of these ingredients of hand, and you might too. If so, you should definitely whip up a batch!

Choco-Peanut Butter No-Bake Cookies

Ingredients

2 cups sugar

4 tablespoons cocoa

1 stick butter

1/2 cup milk

1 cup peanut butter

1 tablespoon vanilla

3 cups oatmeal

Waxed paper

Directions:

1. In a medium-sized pot bring to a boil the sugar, cocoa, butter and milk. Let it boil for 1 minute. Turn the burner off.
2. Stir in peanut butter, vanilla and oatmeal.
3. On a sheet of waxed paper, drop cookie dough by the teaspoonfuls, until cooled and hardened.

Note: The one thing I actually didn't have out of those ingredients was the waxed paper. Instead, I sprayed some Pam on a few of my cookie sheets and placed the cookies on that to cool and harden. It worked great, and they still tasted delicious, but the bottoms of the cookies were a little greasy because of the Pam. :)

Enjoy!
