I have to give a little shout-out to Nestle Baking Cocoa. OH WOW! They took my no-bake cookies from yum to YUMMY!
Here’s my recipe:
2 c. white sugar
4-5 T. Nestle Baking Cocoa
1 stick (1/2 c.) margarine or butter
1/2 c. lactose free milk (or regular I suppose.)
1/3 – 1/2 c. crunchy peanut butter (optional)
about 2 tsp. Vanilla
4 c. oatmeal (1 c. old, 3 c. quick)
Heat the sugar, cocoa, margarine and milk until it comes to a ROLLING boil. (That part is important.) Stir constantly and keep it at a rolling boil for 2 minutes. Don’t start the timer until it’s a FULL rolling boil. :) When your 2 minutes is up – take the pan off the heat and stir in the vanilla and opt. peanut butter. Pour over your oats – mix it up – drop by rounded spoonfuls onto waxed paper and let them cool. (But definitely steal some while they’re warm because it’s so yummy!)
They’re good just like that or frozen – your choice.

If I weren’t dieting and hitting the gym everyday I’d totally hit that. Oh yes, I would hit that like a hammer :)
