I made a batch of these and they were delicious ! I didn't realize until I completed the cooking that I had only added 1/2 stick of butter. I think this made them set quicker and they were yummy !

Great basic recipe for this classic, and easy to modify. I've made it twice. The first time I followed the recipe exactly but used half and half for the milk because that's what I had on hand. I also added the peanut butter, because that's the way my mom made them. They were very good, but a little too sweet for my taste. The second time I reduced the sugar to 1 1/2 cups and added a touch extra milk and peanut butter. They are perfect-the sweetness doesn't overpower the other flavors as much so they taste even chocolatier. Can't speak to the final texture as they are still in the fridge but it looks great too. Thanks for sharing!

I use Carob powder instead of cocoa powder and it turned out just as good as if it were cocoa powder.

Just made these on a sleety, snowy day. Cooked a little longer. Haven't hardened completely yet but still great. Just what the chocolate tooth needed.

I grew up with this no bake recipe. My version calls for 1/4 cup of each; mashed walnuts & raisins. Mixed same time with peanut butter.

Thank you so much for having this online. My grandmother always made these for us at Christmas time and someone knocked over my recipe box so I couldn't find my copy of the recipe. Thank you for saving my day!

I've tried this recipe many times but can't get cookies hard. I'm from Florida so thought maybe it was the humidity here. Grew up in PA and loved these as a kid but don't seem to work in FL unless it's cold out.

I grew up eating these! We called then booboo cookies. Lol! Super yummy and simple. I add about a 1/2 cup of chopped pecans I had left over from Thanksgiving. It turned out to be a great addition!

When I was 12, (22 years ago!) I spent a lovely summer with my family in Nebraska and my Cousin Joan shared this yummy recipe with me. I made them so many times the card is about to fall apart. These are awesome and made a wonderful memory! :) Just make sure you cook them long enough so they firm up! I'd go for 3 minutes.
