Instead of peanut butter or you can do half and half of this try Nutella, you won't be disapointed

I just wanted to say I have made a no make chocolate oatmeal cookies for my whole life. It does not include peanut butter, and uses canned milk. My recipe book I made in second grade I included that recipe. Glad to see it is still around with a few new additives. I am making mine this year for Christmas in memory of my mother. I am now 62 years old so that tells you how many Christmas's we made these in our home. YUMMY AND EASY FOR YOUR KIDS TO HELP. Thank you

These were so good and easy to make. I and my two kids loved them perfect snack for the holiday, we must have been lil hoggies through the whole weekend snacking up on these no bakes. My daughter said Dad these were so delicious I couldn't stop sneaking in the fridge with brother and eating them while watching full house reruns and hearing you say jeez im getting fat I didnt realize I ate so many, while they were secretly laughing lil hogs. lmao

I used dark chocolate almond milk instead of regular milk. The almond milk gives the cookies a richer bolder taste.

These have always been my favorite! For those looking for a bit healthier option, you can use non hydrogenated shortening instead of butter, almond butter instead of peanut butter, almond milk or coconut milk instead of regular milk and Dutch cocoa!

I make this in the microwave. 3 minutes. High for 1 minute then stir and so on. You may want to do this 4 times depending on your microwave and where your altitude. I usually do 4 because it sets up better. Add peanut butter, oats and vanilla after microwaving. It is great! You don't have to use the cocoa if you prefer plain. :)

I have used my mother-in-law's recipe (this one) for 35 years. The last 2-3 times I have made them, the sugar continues to be granulated, in other words, they are grainy, not smooth. WHAT am I doing wrong??? Help!!

I've made these since my kids were little (40yrs). They have their wives make them from my very same recipe. It just never goes out of date

I made these as a demonstration food in my cooking class at school many many years ago. It has always been a favorite when I was growing up on the farm. So easy and fun to make. They never lasted more than a few days.
