I love these super-moist, no-bake chocolate and oatmeal cookies! The only problem I have encountered when making this recipe is that the cookies seem to fall apart due to dryness. As the recipe directs, adding more milk and less oatmeal solves that problem.
Ingredients
- 2 cups white sugar
- 0.5 cups milk
- 0.5 cups butter
- 4 teaspoons cocoa powder
- 0.5 cups creamy peanut butter
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 2 cups quick-cooking oats
Instructions
-
1
Combine sugar, milk, butter, and cocoa powder in a large saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a boil; cook, stirring constantly, until sugar is dissolved completely, 1 1/2 to 2 minutes. Immediately remove saucepan from the heat.

2
Stir peanut butter and vanilla into milk mixture until smooth. Add oats; stir to coat. Spoon oats mixture onto a sheet of parchment paper; let sit until mixture holds together, about 15 minutes.

Fried Rice with Ginger, Hoisin, and Sesame
A twist on the average fried rice - a culmination of some of my favorite Asian flavors thrown into a common dish. This recipe is very easy to adjust according to personal tastes; you can make it about as strong or as mild as you prefer. Compliments Teriyaki beef well, or can be easily modified into a stir-fry meal.
Better Peanut Butter Sandwich
This is a great version of your basic peanut butter sandwich! Applesauce is used in place of jelly. Kids love it, and it has less sugar than regular jelly so it is much better for you.
Mom's Portuguese Beef Stew
This is a favorite home meal from my mom. My sister had to write while my mom cooked in order to get the recipe right. It's easy and will impress anyone. Serve steaming hot on a bed of white rice.
