No-Bake Peanut Butter Oatmeal Cookies

 Sam (New Mexico) says:
Used a little less sugar and the cookies were way too sweet. It needs some salt to balance out the sweetness. If I can perfect the recipe I love the fact that I'm able to pour the mix and let it cool to cut later.. peanut oatmeal bars.

Recipe turned out great but was extremely super sweet. I'm all about sweets but the sugar was overpowering.

 David (Kentucky) says:
Heeded the advice of other comments. Only used one cup of sugar and the recipe turned out fantastic. I also used crunchy peanut butter instead of smooth, and it gave the cookie even more texture and "CRUNCH". Loved that I could let them cool and cut later.

I cut the sugar in half and used pure cane organic sugar instead. I also added an extra cup of oats, about 1/4 cup chocolate chips, and used creamy organic peanut butter. I sprinkled a few chocolate chips on top to make them pretty as well. These cookies came out delicious! I was trying to refrain from eating them straight from the pot!

if you want a little different taste change the vanilla for maple flavor. Use the same amount

Changed the sugar amount due to previous reviews.
I used 1/2 cup sugar and 12 packets of Stevia in the Raw. Everything else I followed the directions. LOVE THESE! Next time I'll try even less sugar and more Stevia (for my diabetic family & friends).

These turned out to be delicious!! I read the other post first and decided to cut the sugar back to one and a half cups which worked very well.

Instead of 2 c sugar I use 3/4 c sugar and 3/4 c dark brown sugar. I also add 1 tsp salt. It evens out the sweetness and I think cutting back on the sugar and using half brown sugar gives these a wonderful buttery caramel taste. I figured this out after making these 4 times. I have to eat gluten free,and everybody loves the way I make these!
