No Bake Cookies

Submitted by Chef likestocook

"I have looked at many no bake recipes, but the one that my family makes was given to me by my babysitter, Mrs. Poole. It has always been a favorite. Since it doesn't have as many oats as some of the recipes it is important to cook it enough. Jenny's always come out perfect, but I do better if I cook in a big skillet ( I think it cooks more area at one time)."

This were really good. Enjoyed them more than other no bake cookies I've had since they didn't have as much oatmeal. I also added about a tablespoon of coconut cream and they turned out very smooth and delicious. I will make this recipe again. Thanks for sharing!
