No Bake Cookies- Never Fail! image

This was given to me from a dear friend of my mother's. Everytime I've made these cookies they turn out, the first ones setting up before I've spooned out all othe the others. Do not double this recipe. And using Splenda instead of sugar won't turn out as well.

I have tried numerous recipes for cutout cookies over the years-this one is foolproof. My daughter and my granddaughter love making these for holidays and social events. Most of all, we enjoy decorating them. You can try almond flavoring or another flavoring of choice. This recipe is easily doubled. -Irene Palm, Mansfield, Ohio

NEVER-FAIL NO-BAKE CHOCOLATE COOKIES



Never-Fail No-Bake Chocolate Cookies image

When I was growing up in the 60's, we had a no bake cookie recipe that rarely turned out, it was either runny or dry. About 20 years ago I found this recipe and it has never failed me, maybe because this one has peanut butter in it. The other trick is to use a pan with a thick bottom.

3 cups quick oats

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients. The better the ingredients, the better the cookies will taste. Use real butter, pure vanilla extract, and high-quality chocolate chips.
  • Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the cookies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Chill the dough before shaping. Chilling the dough will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Bake the cookies at the right temperature. The ideal temperature for baking no-bake cookies is 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Baking them at a higher temperature will make them dry and crumbly.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before serving. This will help them set and firm up.

Conclusion:

No-bake cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They're perfect for parties, potlucks, and bake sales. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can make delicious no-bake cookies that everyone will love.
