So I may have just discovered the most perfect chocolate cookie recipe. It happened because I ran out of oats. I am addicted to the chocolate no-bake cookie recipe....but without oats I always assumed they would just be goo. With a little tweaking however what I discovered was a perfect (and fast) recipe. The challenge now is to try and improve what it looks like. I am thinking next time I will drop the goo into cookie cutters to harden.
For your eating pleasure:
You need:
1/4 cup butter
1 cup sugar
1/4 cup cocoa (powdered)
1/4 cup milk (best when you use just shy of a quarter cup_
1/4 cup peanut butter
1/4 tsp vanilla
To make it:
1. mix butter, sugar, cocoa and milk together until it starts to boil
2. remove from heat
3. add vanilla and peanut butter
4. stir until combined
5. drop onto parchment paper or wax paper...about the size of Oreos (or drop into cookie cutters to make shapes
That's it. They take about 10 minutes to harden completely...although you can always stick them in the fridge to make it happen quicker.
Note: that this recipe doubles and halves really well
