| Yummy chocolate AND peanut butter heaven!! |
From time to time I post pictures of food. HA! All the time I post pictures of food. I dream of food. I think of food. I can't wait until I'm hungry again so I can eat food.. and cookies. Cookies are food, right?

| So tasty you won't want to wait to taste! |
A friend of mine was going to gift us with a really nice woodworking tool. I wanted to gift him with some baked goods, but alas, no time to bake. Has this ever happened to you?
No-Bake Chocolate Peanut Butter Oatmeal Cookies are the solution; the tasty solution, to this predicament. They have all of life's most essential ingredients: chocolate, peanut butter, and oatmeal to keep it healthy.
They take about a 30 minutes to mix up and quickly harden in the freezer.
I pretty much ate most of them, except for the ones that actually made it out of the house for my friend!
These are one of the easiest things for kids to help out with in the kitchen. They can gather the ingredients, add all items into the pot, and then after you boil the mixture, they can scoop out onto a tray lined with wax paper, or into a mini muffin tin! Easy!
Here's the recipe, as I found it here.

Directions:
I used a small cookie scoop. It made it super quick and easy to get these tasty cookies scooped out. I put some on a cookie sheet with wax paper and some into a mini muffin tin lined with mini muffin papers.
