If you're looking for the best no-bake cookies you've ever tasted, this is it. My husband Dave lived off of chili-macs in college (gross... don't try it). Thank goodness he married me, and I love to cook. Otherwise, he might still be eating food simply to not be hungry, not knowing just how good homemade food can be.
He still doesn't cook much, but he told me he lived on these no-bake cookies as a teenager. He found an easy recipe that didn't take too many ingredients or too much time to make, and memorized it. That way he could hurry home from school, make his afternoon pan of no-bakes, eat them, and clean up the evidence before anyone else noticed and came to claim some. Feels like a scene out of a Hunger Games movie to me, but he learned his recipe well and still makes no-bakes for a quick treat!
If you're looking for a quick and easy treat you can make right on the stove (no baking required), here's the best recipe. I think it's even somewhat better for you than typical cookies with all of that oatmeal, but we won't go as far as calling it healthy.
Peanut butter goodness
This no bake recipe is a peanut butter, oatmeal and chocolate based cookie. If you're looking for other yummy peanut butter recipes, another of Dave's favorites is this Peanut Butter Pie I made for his birthday.
No Bake cookies
I love that these cookies don't heat up my kitchen in the summer, since they don't have to bake in the oven. They are made right on top of the stove in one pan. Quick and easy. Not much prep, no complicated steps or ingredients. Just the way a classic no-bake should be! Hope you love them just as much as we all do.
