Organic No-Bake cookies.  Chock full of nutritious oatmeal, peanut butter, dark chocolate; these are a wonderful, gluten free, treat to have in your recipe box. Whip up a batch and take them on the road to parties, picnics, lunchbox; at the park or in the backyard. Kids adore them and so does everyone else.

In my continuing efforts to placate my husbands voracious sweet tooth I had to start playing with this old favorite cookie(read delicious chocolate candy) recipe. No bakes have been in my baking repertoire since he told me about them thirty years ago.

I had never heard of cookies that didn’t need to go into the oven. So, after he begged me to make them, I went to his sister, Linda, and she hooked me up with a great recipe. Whenever he needs a special little goody in a hurry, these are a popular choice.

 

I’m on a campaign to reduce the unnecessary sweets and replace the high sugar diet with a better one. I’ve found a few no bake cookie recipes I may try with totally different ingredients; but once in a while….there is really no replacing these delicious treats. So I’m keeping them in my recipe box with this healthier updated version.

Organic No Bake Cookie Recipe:

I recommend using organic coconut oil and organic sugar for the best results.  I have made this recipe using coconut sugar. That works and they taste delicious but they are gooier even after several hours setting. For a firmer cookie use organic granulated sugar.

Allow the cookies to completely harden before putting onto your serving plate or in a cookie jar. Setting these cookies may take several hours at room temperature if you are using the coconut sugar. Put them in the fridge for a faster set. If you like them gooey, you can eat them from the wax paper before completely firm. YUMMY!!!
