Time 1h5m

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 c sugar
1/2 c butter ((1 stick - salted))
1/2 c milk
4 Tbsp cocoa
2 tsp vanilla extract
3 c oatmeal ((use quick oats, not old fashioned or steel cut oats))

Steps:

  • Combine the butter, sugar, and milk in a saucepan and bring to a boil over medium high to high heat (enough to bring the syrup to a rapid boil). Stir frequently to prevent burning or boiling over!
  • Once the syrup is at a full rolling boil, stir and cook for 1 minute then remove from heat.
  • Add the vanilla and cocoa, stir until the syrup is smooth. Add the quick oats and stir until evenly coated with the syrup.
  • Drop tablespoon sized portions onto waxed paper, use the back of a spoon to make cookie shaped (rather than a no bake cookie mound) if desired. Allow to set up for one hour.

NO-BAKE CHOCOLATE OATMEAL COOKIES



No-Bake Chocolate Oatmeal Cookies image

These are wonderful, quick cookies. It is one of the first things I learned to "cook." You can add more or less oats (3 cups work best for me). I have found that the weather makes a difference on the consistency, its best to make them on a nice sunny day. Also, It is very important not to boil them for longer than one minute.

Time 6m

Yield 24 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 cup butter
1 1/2 cups white sugar
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup milk
4 tablespoons cocoa
1 pinch kosher salt
1/2 cup creamy peanut butter (or chunky but is seems to make a more crumbly, dry cookie)
2 teaspoons vanilla
3 cups dry quick-cooking oats

Steps:

  • Add the first six ingredients into a 4-quart sauce pan.
  • Bring to a rolling boil and hold for 1 minute.
  • Remove from heat.
  • Add peanut butter into the hot mixture and stir until melted.
  • Add in vanilla. (almond extract is good also, but I only use 1/2 teaspoon almond extract with 1 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract).
  • Mix in the dry oats until they are completely coated.
  • Drop cookies by tablespoonfuls onto wax paper.
  • Let cool until set.
  • *Please remember that even if you do follow the recipe exactly, it doesn't always turn out just right. I've had these not set up for me or be hard and dry. But most of the time, the recipe is just right. I adjusted the sugar in the recipe by substituting 1/2 cup of white sugar for 1/2 cup brown sugar, this makes them more moist. I have also found that it makes a difference if you use quick cooking oats or old fashioned. In my experience it takes more old fashioned oats than quick cooking and I like the texture of the quick cooking better. When you make it a few hundred times like I have you learn a couple of things:) Also, Chunky peanut butter tends to make them more dry and crumbly.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality oats: Look for rolled oats or quick-cooking oats for the best texture and flavor. Avoid using steel-cut oats as they are too chewy for this recipe.
  • Adjust the sweetness: The amount of honey or maple syrup can be adjusted to suit your taste preferences. If you like sweeter cookies, add more sweetener. For a less sweet cookie, reduce the amount of sweetener.
  • Chill the dough: Chilling the dough for at least 30 minutes helps the cookies to set and hold their shape better. This also makes them easier to roll into balls.
  • Don't over-mix the dough: Over-mixing the dough can make the cookies tough. Mix the ingredients until they are just combined, then stop.
  • Use a cookie scoop: A cookie scoop helps to ensure that the cookies are all the same size and shape. This also makes it easier to roll the cookies into balls.
  • Bake the cookies until they are just set: The cookies should be slightly soft in the center when they are done baking. If you over-bake them, they will become dry and crumbly.

Conclusion:

No-bake chocolate oatmeal drop cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. They are made with simple ingredients that are likely already in your pantry. With just a few simple steps, you can have a batch of these cookies ready to enjoy in no time. These cookies are perfect for a quick snack, a dessert, or a packed lunch. They are also a great way to use up leftover oats.
