INGREDIENTS IN NO-BAKE COOKIES;

  • Granulated sugar and packed brown sugar – I prefer using two types of sugar in this recipe, but if you don’t have the option, use 1 3/4 cup of one.
  • It is advisable to take butter of high quality and with a high percentage of fat.
  • Milk – be sure to use pasteurized milk so that the regular does not curdle during the boiling process.
  • Peanut butter is the base of our cookies, so be free to choose your favorite brand.
  • Vanilla adds a special flavor to our cookies, and a pinch of salt perfectly sets off all the sweetness. Old-fashioned oats or instant oatmeal – here you are also free to choose. I like the old-fashioned ones because they give the cookie a special texture, and instant oatmeal will make your cookie softer.

CAN YOU FREEZE PEANUT BUTTER NO-BAKE COOKIES?

Yes, peanut butter no-bake oatmeal cookies are great for freezing. To do this, you need to wait until the cookies are completely set, then put them in a large container with an airtight lid and put them in the freezer.

Let them thaw overnight in the refrigerator or at room temperature before use.

SUCCESS TIPS FOR NO-BAKE COOKIES;

  1. The most important rule in a no-bake cookie recipe with peanut butter is boiling! In the first step, you should bring the mixture to a boil and start timing only when the entire surface begins to bubble.
  2. If you are not very fond of cookies with old-fashioned oats, try replacing them with instant oatmeal.
  3. You can also put the mixture for a short time in the microwave. This will make them even softer.
  4. If the brown sugar cookie mix is hot and spreads over the parchment, let it cool slightly. Then continue spreading onto a baking sheet to form a cookie.
