This is a cookie recipe that many of you already know and love, but this is just my mom's version from the 1960's of a family favorite :) Beware, they are addicting!!
Happy Holidays!!
Chocolate No-Bake Cookies
Ingredients:
1/2 cup butter or margarine
1/2 cup baking cocoa
1/2 cup milk (prefer 2%)
2 cups granulated sugar
1/2 cup peanut butter
3 cups quick oats
1 cup shredded coconut
Preparation:
Stir butter/margarine, cocoa, milk, and sugar together in a medium saucepan on stove top, over medium to medium-high heat. Bring to a bubble/boil. Continue boiling for 1 minute.
Remove from heat and slowly stir in peanut butter, followed by quick oats and coconut. Mix well. Tip: it's easier to stir in the oats and coconut a small amount at a time.
Drop by rounded tablespoons full onto trays lined with a sheet of waxed paper.
Let cool until cookies become solid.
Makes 2 to 3 dozen depending on size of cookies.
Enjoy!
