No Bake Cookies
"Yes, another no-bake recipe but this is mine and I'm putting it here for safe keeping. From my church's cook book, where food comes with a personal memory. I have found this to be a pretty reliable no-bake recipe that tends to have a soft, slightly granular texture that sets up but you have to move fast! Wait too long to spoon it on the wax paper and they can turn dry and crumbly. Have your wax paper laid out in anticipation."

- 7
- Yields:
-
24-30 cookies
- Serves:
- 30
ingredients
- 1⁄2 cup margarine, melted
- 2 cups sugar
- 4 tablespoons cocoa
- 1⁄2 cup milk (top milk)
- 3 cups quick oatmeal, uncooked
- 1⁄2 cup peanut butter
- 1⁄2 cup coconut
directions
- Measure oatmeal, peanut butter and coconut into a large bowl and set aside.
- Boil margarine, sugar, cocoa and milk together for 1 minute.
- Pour onto oatmeal, peanut butter coconut mixture.
- Mix thoroughly making sure to moisten all the ingredients.
- Drop by heaping teaspoons onto waxed paper.
- The recipe calls for top milk, which I assume is the cream that rises to the top on unseperated and unhomogenized milk. Not having my own cow, I use 1/2 cup milk and throw in a little extra margarine--about a heaping teaspoon.

Like to cook tasty but not too fancy food.
<br>
<br>Love seeing what cooks from all over are doing.

<br>I am a school nurse in an elementary school and I really love the job. It's so much to fun to see children grow from kindergarten to grade five and I love working with the families in my school. Like every school, food plays a part in our "social life" and we bring food to celebrate birthdays, sport events (many K-state fans at school) and the holidays. Anyone who works in a school is,in part, an overgrown kid, so we also get to celebrate halloween, St. Patrick's day and Valentines day.

<br>Right now, my kitty Cartman is gracing my page. He was named by my son. His brother, Mistoffelees, also lives with us and I love their unique personalities.
