No Bake Cookies - Microwave Recipe

You will have to excuse my absence from MyLot for about 15 minutes while I step away and make some No Bake Cookies!!!! I have all of these ingredients and I can't wait to try this. Thank you for posting it!

This got me thinking about no-bake recipes, how many could be asapted to the microwave with relative ease, and then...about cookies made with out heat! :) My mother made these peanut butter...well, thumbprints, really, the way she made them. I like them - both for kids and adults - because, as cookies/sweets go, they're relatively nutritious. The basic recipe is as follows: 1 c. peanut butter 1 c. dy milk powder 1/2 c. honey Combine all ingredients well. Roll into small balls (marble -walnut sized) or press into patties and refrigerate. Here comes the fun: My mom made little patties/rounds, and placed a dollop of jam in the center of each. sometimes she ever regrigerated it first and used cookie cutters! Any number of additions could be added to the "dough" - chopped nuts, coconut, oats, mini chocolate chips...I've also rolled the balls in wheat germs for a extra nutrition punch. Honey can be decreased. We try to be very conscientious about our sugar/added sugar intake, and peanut butter is already fairly sweet!

Great looking reciepe. Thanks so much for sharing another wonderful receipe.

I love coming on here and finding your new recipes. Your the best. I love no bake cookies to. I aways made this and we called them mud pies but I never made them the microwave way but I am sure going to give this recipe a try. Thanks Anne your the best.

I just tried this recipe, well actually my boyfriend made them. And I just finished eating eight of them. So much for dinner tonight.lol. He didn't put in the coconut as we don't like it, but he added a little extra oatmeal and a little extra cocoa. They are so good. Thanks for the recipe.

Yummy! Do you think these would turn out well if I subbed rice crispies instead of the oats? I really want to try these, but I'm afraid of wasting money and time if they won't turn out.

Hi! Thanks for posting this. I love no bake cookies! I'll have to start making them now that I have a little one to share them with! :-)

OH I love no bake cookies, but have never heard of a microwave version. Thank you for posting this. I will have to try it.

I love microwave or no bake recipes. I ahve to try these soon.

Now why did you have go and post this recipe??? These are my absolute favorite cookie!!!! They only thing I do different is that I don't add coconut in mine and I use a bit more peanut butter. I never tried it in the microwave... does it still harden after they have set for a while? I promised myself that I would not make any no bake cookies until I've lost my first 10 pounds and then I'd only make half of a batch because I'm just too tempted to eat them all! lol! So I still have 5 more pounds to go before I can make them....

WOW this sound as a georgeus idea for me! So sad that it is so late now - but i will check you recepie tomorrow to see what is it like to have cookies from microwave :) Thanks to it i will be able to make cookies in the summer house ^^

I love chocolate chips and I noticed that it wasn't in the recipe. Is there any way that I could still make this recipe and add in chocolate chips? Have you tried that? Thanks for sharing this though I will definitely try to make these. They sound so yummy.

I love no bake cookies also , they are great to make with the younger children . My older children love baking , so I will have to copy down this recipe and see what they think of it .

Thank you for posting this recipe for no-bake cookies. I have been looking everywhere for a recipe like this. It would have been better though if you posted this earlier, maybe before the holiday season. Haha. But anyway, it's just on time for valentines' day. I'll try it out and if it's good I might even mass produce it and sell it! Thank you again.

I love no bake cookies and so does my husband and he has been bugging me since December to make him some and now I can because I won't have to worry as much about scorching it if I don't constantly stir. So if he is good tomorrow I will make him some of these and try it your way in the microwave. Thanks for posting htis recipe I appreciate it as I am sure alot of others do to.

OH wow. This sounds good.... It does say no bake, but I doubt I would make it right! LOL I can't cook if my life depended on it. LOL But thank you so much for sharing this! :)
