The Easiest No-Bake Cookies

Cookies so easy, you don't even need to turn on your oven.

Went to the website that’s linked in the description box that led me to another link that was in the article and found the recipe:

* 7 ounces plain or lightly toasted sugar (about 1 cup; 200g)
* 6 ounces milk (about 3/4 cup; 170g); any percentage will do
* 1/2 ounce Dutched cocoa powder (about 2 tablespoons; 15g), such as Cacao Barry Extra Brute
* 1/4 teaspoon (1g) Diamond Crystal kosher salt; for table salt, use about half as much by volume or use the same weight
* 1 ounce dark chocolate, about 72% (about 2 tablespoons; 30g), melted
* 4 ounces creamy peanut butter (shy 1/2 cup; 110g); commercial styles work best
* 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
* 2 ounces instant oatmeal (shy 2/3 cup; 55g); see note
* 1 ounce old-fashioned rolled oats (heaping 1/4 cup); see note

I made fudge yesterday and no bakes today and realized they were basically the same. You just confirmed that! Thx!

You don't even say how much to put in. A little bit of how much

No-bake cookies are one of my absolute favorite desserts. I'm definitely going to have to give your recipe a shot, Stella.

Now that I'm thinking about my favorite desserts, I'm pondering how to pull off a no-bake cheesecake with a no-bake cookie crust. I'll bet that would be amazing.

You are awesome at your job! We love you Stella! Your videos are the best and we are now baking like professionals, we so appreciate you! Keep up the great work!

I read "easy" with all your talking "rambling" thermometer? Temperature? Oh hell I'm out!

Stella reminds me of my old imaginary friend, Shiloh. She would always let me win at checkers.

I watched this twice and no measurements.

They look delicious, thank you. Will you please make a thin, crisp chocolate chip cookie sweetened with stevia? Thank you.

All the other recipes I've seen use butter but she didn't. Does anyone know what the butter is for?

[sherryanntodd]

I tried this recipe and these are amazing ....thanks for sharing

[nicolethornton]

Where is the stick of butter and how do you toast sugar?

My aunt made these every Christmas growing up, she told us that she created them and they were her own recipe that she wouldn’t give to anyone. I had to spy on her from our kitchen window to see how she made them. You’re telling me this is a common recipe? Everything in life is a lie

[HoganPark]

It's amazing that it is possible.

[puttsky]

Can these be made butter scotch instead of chocolate?

[dedebee]

Sorry you forgot a main ingredient which is a stick of butter makes all the difference in the world! Sorry mine's much better that way

My Mom always made these when I was an evil child. We called them "Poop Turds". Makes for an awkward moment when a stranger overhears you talking about poop turds and how delicious they are to eat. Instead of the spoon drop method, she would just dump it all into one of those aluminum 9x13" pans with a sliding lid and cut squares. To this day, those sliding aluminum containers bring back a host of memories.

My mom made these with no peanut butter, no nut butter at all. I can't find that version anywhere!

[carolm]

We used to make these cookies pretty much the same as shown here except we added shredded coconut and didn't use peanut butter. I can't seem to find the recipe now and have been looking online for something close. I don't care about omitting the coconut but would prefer them without peanut butter. Does anyone know if you could just leave it out or would you have to adjust the whole recipe?
