THE BEST NO BAKE COOKIES

Steps:

• Combine sugar, cocoa, butter, and milk in a large saucepan and stir over medium-low heat until combined.
• Turn heat to medium and cook, stirring occasionally, until mixture comes to a full boil. Boil for one minute, stirring occasionally. (Watch the clock closely--if you don't boil them long enough, they will not set. Boil them too long, and they will be dry.) Remove from heat.
• Add peanut butter, vanilla, and oatmeal to mixture and stir until combined.
• Drop by the tablespoon onto a baking sheet. Cool, then remove from sheet with a spatula, and store in an airtight container.

MY MOM'S NO-BAKE COOKIES

Steps:

• 1. Combine all ingredients together, except the coconut and oats, in a medium saucepan; start cooking the mixture over medium heat. Lower the heat; allow the mixture to cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• 2. Remove from the heat and add the coconut; stir until blended. Add the oats; stir until well blended. Drop by tablespoonfuls onto waxed paper. Allow to cool at room temperature. Once cooled, I place them in decorative muffin/cupcake papers and store them in an airtight container. *If you like a softer texture to the oatmeal, you can add it to the mixture during the last 2 minutes of cooking (Step 1).
• 3. VARIATIONS ~ Peanut butter (add approx. 1/3 c. to mixture while cooking) ~ Raisins, cranberries or Craisins* ~ Nuts* ~ Other dried fruits, chopped* *You might need to decrease the amount of coconut when adding these variations.
