America’s Favorite No Bake Cookies
June 17th, 2010 | 
Author: Hello guys! I know its been a while since we actually been on here. I have attended a cookie convention and it was great! It was pretty good to taste all the no bake cookies that people created. Most of them were kind of sweet. I’m personally not used to sweet ones because I do tend to burn them. There were a lot of recipes that people used including the ones from the betty crocker recipes. I loved how they managed to add a few extra ingredients that made it taste so much better than the original one. However I didn’t like how they made some that just tasted like regular cookies. The ones were pictured above and we love to see how good they were and it ended up that people loved the ones I created. We posted some of our secret recipes that included some of the great innovations that we created. I went to my local grocery store and picked up some pre-made no baked cookies. Yuck! they were not the ones that Grandmother creates. I have seen ones that were much better and it was created by many of our great cooks.
There has been talk of a No Bake Cookie Competition but it was just a rumor that I heard from a fellow Chief. I seen many different ones from around the country. They were great for holiday events specially the ones that were made through the betty crocker recipes. If you want to check out the link above to see the good no bake cookies.

Chocolate No Bake Cookies
A quick and easy sweet chocolate cookie with quick oats and coconut, made on the stove-top
2 dozen
2 cups sugar
1/3 cup baking cocoa (powder)
1/2 cup milk
6 tablespoons (3/4 stick) butter
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla
3 cups quick-cooking oats
1/3 cup coconut (or nuts of your choice)
1. In a large stock pot, combine sugar, cocoa, and milk, whisking until mixed. Measure oats and coconut in a bowl or large measuring cup and set aside.
2. Add butter and salt and then heat over medium to medium-high heat, stirring constantly, until butter is melted and mixture is smooth. (Use whisk to remove lumps if necessary.)
3. Continue heating and stirring until mixture boils. When mixture is at a full boil (it will be very bubbly!) time for 4 1/2 minutes. Stir constantly while timing.
4. Remove pan from heat and add vanilla, oats, and coconut. Quickly stir until the oats are completely covered with chocolate.
5. Drop mixture by teaspoons onto a sheet of waxed paper. Cookies will harden as they cool. Yummy!!
If cookies don’t set properly (i.e. fall apart or are still wet when completely cool), the sugar mixture wasn’t boiled long enough.
If cookies are too hard (or set up while still hot!) the sugar mixture was boiled too long.
If the dough starts setting up as you’re dropping the cookies onto the waxed paper, just stir a little water or milk into the remaining dough so that you can continue forming your cookies.

This is a really quick cookie recipe. These cookies are super sweet (more like candy, really!) and chocolate-y. 
I’ve been making these no-bake cookies for many years (ever since I was learning to cook as a child!) and they’re always enjoyed when we take them places. They’re easy to make, too! I always put coconut in ours. My rating: 10/10
