Peanut-free! These no-bake chocolate macaroons are also known as 'Frogs and Haystacks.' My mother has been making these since before I was born; she passed this down to me. There are many no-bake cookies out there, but I like these best. Store in an airtight container in a cool spot. These can be frozen.

Ingredients

  • 2.5 cups rolled oats
  • 0.5 cups cocoa powder
  • 0.5 cups flaked coconut
  • 1.5 cups white sugar
  • 0.5 cups milk
  • 0.5 cups butter
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. 1

    Line a work surface with waxed paper.

  2. 2

    Stir oats, cocoa powder, and coconut together in a large bowl.

  3. 3

    Whisk sugar, milk, and butter together in a nonstick pot; bring to a boil and cook, stirring constantly, until sugar is completely dissolved, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat and stir vanilla extract into butter mixture.

  4. 4

    Stir oat mixture into butter mixture until well-combined. Drop mixture by the spoonful onto waxed paper and let sit until set, at least 15 minutes.
