OK, Here's what I did...

Oatmeal - Peanut Butter - CHOCOLATE
No Bake Cookie

Ingredients

3. Add the Vanilla and pats, remove from heat and stir to combine.
4. Drop one rounded tsp at a time on to wax paper, cool until set, about 30 minutes.

I LOVE These Cookies!

First, they are FAST.  Total cooking time is under an hour from box to stomach!

Next, they are EASY.  Just a little stovetop heating, but really very easy.  Once you get them off the stovetop, they would be great cooking project for young children.  Just form and drop and they are cooking!

They have the illusion of being healthy.  Certainly healthier than your standard cookie. Loaded with peanut butter and partially sweetened with Honey but the star of the healthy aspect of this show is the oats.  

But none of that would matter without the taste... Plenty of CHOCOLATE!  with hints of peanut butter and honey.  The rough texture of the Oats ...  All in all, a wonderful cookie!

They are a winner!

Uniquely Delicious!
