Submitted by Sweet PQ?

"I clipped this recipe for no-bake cookies from the newspaper many years ago. I haven't made it yet, but it sounds like it would be good by the list of ingredients. NOTE: Prep time does not include standing (cooling) time."

Totally delicous. i made this as a bar slice due to summer heat - I just had to get it into fridge ! But it is one of those addictive slices where you cannot stop returning to the fridge for another little bit, or big bit for that matter !! I used Marie biscuits as we don't get Graham crackers here and left out the peanut butter. made for Everyday is a Holiday tag.
