No Bake Peanut Butter Oatmeal Cookies

 Drea (Tennessee) says:
The only thing I did not like about this recipe was how much sugar to be put in it. I put only a cup of sugar, but even that was a little bit too much. I also did not add as much peanut butter, I probably added 1/2 cup instead. Other than that they make great little desserts!

Try replacing the 2c of sugar with 2c of Brown Sugar. I use the brown sugar and these are amazing.

I love this recipe! It is so easy a 10 year old could do it. The only problem with these cookies is that once you start you won't be able to stop eating them.

I switched up the oatmeal with Honey Bunches of Oats cereal and reduced the sugar to about a cup, my spouse is always begging me to make more! Very quick, easy, and not so messy :)

I just finished and I loved these cookies. They are great my boyfriend actually likes them.

 Tori (Iowa) says:
I used 1 Cup white and 1 cup brown sugar and really liked the results. My suggestion is to use a small cookie scooper rather than spooning them onto the paper. It helps them pack tighter

I added 1 tbsp. of molasses instead of using brown sugar. It's cheaper than using brown sugar, and tasted great!

 Gette (Manitoba) says:
I agree that there is too much sugar. Love how simple, but if using that much sugar use an all natural peanut butter instead.

The recipe is perfect just the way it is! However, because I'm lazy, I just double the recipe and then pour the whole thing into a 10"x15" sheetcake pan. When cool, I cut into bars and store in an airtight container.

I like it. The sweeter the better. Can't have too much sugar. Just make sure you send the kids outside to play after they eat a few... lol

These cookies were great except I will use one cup of sugar rather than two cups.

 Neecie (North Carolina) says:
I also used brown sugar instead of white, as was previously suggested. What a difference! They're not overwhelmingly sweet now. Ty for the idea! I also had to add almost one extra cup of oats (I didn't measure anything over three cups but kept adding more until the mixture no longer looked quite so wet.) there was no way they would have held together otherwise. Maybe because I only buy skim milk? Or I didn't boil long enough? I'm a huge fan of the brown sugar idea now, thanks! My grandmother made these when I was a wee little one but I never thought mine would taste better!

This was a great quick cookie for the kids.. I also cut down on the sugar, we added chocolate chips and rolled ours in grahams cracker crumbs.. They were great!
