Grandma's Classic No-Bake Cookies

Grandma's Classic No-Bake Cookies

This recipe for no-bake cookies is the first cookie I ever learned to make as a child. They’re very delicious with peanut butter and oatmeal. You can eat them fresh out of the bowl with a spoon, which is delicious with a glass of milk besides. This recipe was my grandmother’s, and my mother taught it to her children, and I will to mine. I hope you have as much fun making this either by yourself or with your children, as I did with my mom. Separate cookies with waxed paper if you’re putting them in a tin or baggie to prevent sticking.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups white sugar
  • ½ cup milk
  • ½ cup unsalted butter

  • 3 cups old-fashioned oats
  • ½ cup peanut butter, or more to taste
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions

Step 1
Combine sugar, milk, butter, and cocoa powder in a large saucepan over medium heat; bring to a boil. Cook and stir until butter is melted and mixture is smooth, 2 to 3 minutes.

Step 2

Tips

You can use 1-minute oats, but it changes the flavor.
