My sons and I love to bake and one treat we didn’t get around to making this past holiday season were my No-Bake Cookies. I have been making these since I was in jr.high and they are one of my favorite cookies. My 15yo son, Jordan was my accomplice this time with one of my easy recipes.

2 cups of sugar

1/2 cup cocoa

1 stick Parkay

1/2 cup milk

1 tsp vanilla

3 cups quick cooking oats

1/2 cup Peter Pan Peanut Butter

Combine the sugar, cocoa, Parkay and milk in a saucepan. Heat on medium heat while stirring constantly. Once it starts boiling, allow it to boil for 1 minute and then remove from the heat. Stir in the Peter Pan Peanut Butter, vanilla and oats. Drop by the spoonful onto wax paper. Allow to cool at least 30 minutes. We decided to nibble on a few cookies and then we packed up 2 dozen to bring to church on Sunday night. Jordan gave them to Solomon Cudzillo who runs a feeding ministry to the homeless. Solomon is always looking for homemade goodies to bring to the hundreds of people he and his volunteers feed every week.

I was compensated by Collective Bias, but all opinions are my own.

    I love no bake cookies! I had some over break at my boyfriend’s house. Oh, and I love Collective Bias, too.

    Those sound delicious! I love to bake with my daughter – it gives us an opportunity to slow down and find time to talk. She learns math skills as well when we measure ingredients.

    It’s so kind of you to pass on the cookies – I’m sure they were appreciated!

    I use to make these when I was little! Thanks for this post, I need to get my boys interested in making them. 🙂 We love to bake, but these they could do on their own!

    We made something very similar to these with one of our teachers back in elementary school. What a fun recipe to share with my kiddos!

    I just did a post on no bakes back around Christmas. We also know them as Carolina Delights or Preacher Cookies. I think my recipe is just a little different from yours? Will have to compare. Way to go Jordan!

    What I love about no bake cookies is not just how simple they are, but the kids feel so proud that they have made them. It’s a great motivator for the kids wanting to help in the kitchen.
