Jan's No Bake Cookie Saga

Link: http://creativetutors.com/

As a child I loved No Bake Cookies! These are the chocolate oatmeal peanut butter cookies that are cooked over the stove top. Well, it seems like everyone on this earth has eaten these cookies….and knows the magic of how to make them but me! Every year I try and try and try. For some reason, I do not succeed in making them correctly the first time around. On occasion, I have gotten them right the 2nd or 3rd time around and many hours of stirring and lots of ingredients later; exhausted, tired and irritable I sit down to a good cookie. Befuddled. Exhausted. Glad to have the experience over.

There are years that I never see a successful No Bake Cookie! My mother-in-law and sister-in-laws have all gotten panicked phone calls from me seeking recipe help. As many of you know, I have put the word out that if you make No Bake Cookies, don’t forget about me! Send me a dozen or 12 dozen! And know….. that the cookies will be eaten and enjoyed and the thank you feeling in my heart lives all year long!
