Healthier No Bake Cookies I Recipes

HEALTHY NO-BAKE COOKIES

Steps:

• Note: You can use regular peanut butter - but of course, that will make your cookies reduced sugar rather than sugar free.
• Combine first four ingredients in a sauce pan and warm gently on stove top.*
• Next, add in the vanilla, oatmeal, and stir well.
• Drop by the spoonful onto a saran lined plate and let cool. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator - if they last that long.
• Enjoy!

• Line a large cookie sheet with wax paper and drop the cookie mixture on by the spoonful (each cookie was about 1 1/2 Tablespoons of mixture).

HEALTHIER NO-BAKE CHOCOLATE OATMEAL COOKIES

Steps:

• Mix sugar, cocoa, milk and salt in saucepan; boil for one minute.
• Add peanut butter, butter, and vanilla to hot mixture; stir until combined.
• Stir in oats thoroughly and drop by spoonfuls (I use a small cookie scoop) onto waxed paper. Cool thoroughly before removing from paper.

HEALTHY NO BAKE COOKIES

Steps:

• Heat milk, sugar and cocoa powder over high heat until boiling, stirring constantly.
• Take off heat and stir in vanilla and peanut butter; stir until peanut butter has melted completely.
• Stir in wheat germ and oatmeal.
• Drop by large spoonfuls onto wax paper or eat immediately.
• *As I noted above, this recipe is VERY flexible. If you don't have wheat germ or flax seed, just use more oatmeal. The recipe above should work out just perfectly and does most of the time, but if your cookies come out crumbly, use less oatmeal next time. If they never set, use more oatmeal next time.
