Chocolate no-bake cookies are a perfect summer cookie because they do not bake in the oven. Follow the recipe closely to make these super yummy cookies in a snap. These cookies are a crowd-pleaser for both children and adults.
Instructions
1. Melt margarine or butter in a saucepan over high heat. Add cocoa, milk and sugar.
2. Bring the mixture to a rolling boil. Reduce the heat to medium high. Boil for 3 minutes.
3. In the meantime, measure oats, peanut butter and vanilla. Put in a bowl and set aside.
4. Lay out approximately 2 feet of parchment paper, waxed paper or tinfoil.
5. Immediately remove boiling mixture from the heat and turn off the stove when the 3 minutes is over. Quickly add oat mixture and stir until it is all combined.
6. Work quickly to drop tablespoonfuls of cookie mix on the paper or foil. They will not spread; leave just enough space between cookies so they don't touch.
7. Let cookies cool until they are firm and easily removed from the paper or foil. Store in an airtight container with parchment paper between layers.
