I love no bake cookies. They only take a few minutes and they're yummy. I have been making variations of this recipe for years and have just recently perfected it!
Best Ever No-Bake Cookies
1/2 C. brown sugar
2 T. water*
Cook over medium high heat. DO NOT STIR. Swirl the pan as the sugar melts and begins to boil.
When it turns darkish brown add:
1-2 Tbs. cream*
Stir until smooth. This makes a caramel sauce.
add:
1 stick butter
Stir until smooth.
add:
1 1/2 C. Sugar
1/2 C. milk*
Stir well.
Add:
3 Tbs. cocoa powder
3/4 C. peanut butter*
1/2 tsp. salt
Bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Remove from heat.
Stir in:
3/4 C. Nutella*
1 tsp. vanilla*
3 C. quick oatmeal
If it's too dry, add more milk. Mix well. Drop by spoonfuls onto aluminum foil. Let cool for a few minutes before eating.
* I don't really measure these items, this is just an estimate. = ) I suspect that I use more milk than the recipe calls for...
