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.
Delicious bites of decadent chocolate goodness. made from organic ingredients. Health food? NO. Healthier food? YES!
These are a sweet treat; almost like homemade chocolate candy, so respect the high sugar and fat when considering the portions. I used all organic ingredients and it does make a difference. The cookies take a little longer to set up. The flavor is fabulous!!
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.
Delicious, organic No-Bake cookies
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!!!
