After watching yesterday’s video of the chocolate covered corn flakes, I got a craving. Sadly, we have no corn flakes in the cupboard (yet!) so my mind wandered to the next closest thing: chocolate peanut butter no-bake cookies!
I’ve loved no-bake cookies since I was a kid, especially because we always had everything we needed. As a teenager, I discovered no-bake cookies with peanut butter and there was no looking back!
Chocolate Peanut Butter No-Bake Cookies
2 cups sugar
4 Tb cocoa
1 stick butter
1/2 cup milk
1 cup peanut butter
1 Tb vanilla
3 cups oatmealIn a heavy saucepan bring to a boil sugar, cocoa, butter and milk. Let boil for one minute and add peanut butter, vanilla and oatmeal. Drop by tablespoonfuls onto waxed paper or aluminum foil until cooled and hardened.
These are good with chunky or creamy peanut butter, and I let mine sit in the pan for just a few minutes after everything’s mixed so it hardens a bit before I scoop it out. If it’s too hot it’ll spread out quite a bit and won’t hold much of a shape.
My recipe calls for you to cook them 2 minutes. GREAT COOKIES!
i made this once , turned out perfect ! second tme and i think it had to much peanut butter because there to lite , but i used 1 cup ? so i dont know ?
Using a stick of margarine is very important. Using butter out of a tub will result in your cookies not hardening or not coming together like you want them to.
My cookies are taking a long time to harden. Any hints?
You might have to boil the mixture a little longer
Do You Need The Butter To Make These ?
How long do your cookies usually take to harden?
it only takes about 10 to 20 mins depending on how big you make them
My girls and I do alot of cookie making and baking and this one of our favorites–Love to make the pb ones and the chocolate ones..Yum-o
i love this cookies it looks so delicious
i will try it
my grandmother called them boiled cookies but no bake sounds so much better …
About how many cookies does this recipe yield?
omg me too! :D we used to call them bear shits.
I grew up with these, too! we called them “cowpies”. yum!
Maybe cut the PB in 1/2. Tastes more peanuttier than I remember.

Oh my goodness! These cookies look totally amazing. What a great job you’ve done. Love the no-bake idea. Such an easy way to get your chocolate fix.
These are absolutely my favorite cookies in the world! My family always called them Missouri Cookies, but I have no idea why.
