No Bake Cookie Recipe

These cookies are so quick, easy, and delicious! I have been making these cookies since I was in grade school. They are perfect for your next Christmas party or cookie exchange!

Ingredients

• ½ cup butter or margarine (1 stick) (on sale at Walgreens this week!)
• ½ cup milk
• 2 cups sugar (find sugar coupons)
• 3 tablespoons cocoa
• ¼ teaspoon salt
• 3-4 cups oatmeal
• ¼ cup nuts (optional)
• ¼ cup coconut (optional)

Directions

In a large pot, bring butter, milk, sugar, cocoa, and salt to a boil – stirring. Remove from heat; add oatmeal (nuts or coconut too!) and mix (you want the cookies to be thick enough to hold). Drop onto wax paper or a Silpat to cool. Makes about 2 dozen.

Bon Appétit!!
