No Bake Cookies – ‘Healthified’
Ingredients
- 1 cup white sugar*
- 1/2 cup skim milk
- 1/2 cup coconut oil
- 4 T. unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 cup peanut butter*
- 3 cups old fashioned oats*
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- *Notes – I used ½ cup sugar and ½ cup Stevia in the Raw – just depends on your preference. Any nut butter or peanut butter replacement, such as WowButter or SunButter could be used in the place of peanut butter. A combination of quick cooking and old fashioned oats, or all quick cooking can be used if you prefer.
Instructions
- In a medium saucepan, combine sugar, milk, coconut oil, and cocoa.
- Bring to a boil, and cook for about a minute.
- Remove from heat, and stir in peanut butter, oats, and vanilla.
- Drop by spoonfuls onto wax paper.
- Place in fridge to cool and set.
- {store in refrigerator since coconut oil melts above 76 degrees F}
