An old blogging friend of mine, Terri, sent me a bunch of her Christmas baking recipes a few years ago and I still haven’t gotten around to making all of them.
But, today, my friends, I made one of them and boy I wish I had made this one the year she sent me the recipes! This will now become a family favourite in our house just like she wrote on her recipe (it has been a family fav in her house since she was a little girl as well!).
It was SO easy to make, it is crazy fast and it is super duper yummy!
Combine the following ingredients in a Saucepan:
2 cups sugar
1/2 cup milk
1/4 cup butter
1/3 cup cocoa
Boil for 1 minutes. Remove from heat.
Mix in:
2 cups quick cooking rolled oats
1/2 cup flaked or shredded coconut
1/2 cup peanut butter
1 tsp vanilla
Drop onto wax paper and cool in refrigerator.
Oh and try not to eat them all in one sitting 🙂
Those look so yummy! I wish my hubby liked too bad DH doesn’t like coconut, but you know what? I think I’ll make these for our Girls Night In we’re having, the girls would love this! Thanks for the recipe! 🙂
this looks similar to the one my mom used to make and she always called them ‘haystacks’
Oh YUM. I will be making this this weekend. I can pretend they are healthy for me, LOL
These looks fantastic. The oatmeal makes ’em healthy, right?
Yummy! these just look dangerous!!!
No bake is super! Especially when you are showing kids or letting them do something “by themselves”

I am so tempted to make those this afternoon, but, I know I wouldn’t be able to keep myself out of the fridge!
I will make these for my grandkids though!
Thanks!

You’re very welcome! Let me know how you enjoy them, Michelle!
Before you measure the peanut butter put hot water in the half cup and then the peanut butter will just slide out when measure.
