So a friend of mine gave me a recipe for no bake cookies, I made 'em, and they are fabulous... i have to share!!

Preacher Cookies:

2 c. sugar
1/2 c. milk
3 tbsp. cocoa
1 stick margarine
---
3 c. quick oats
3/4 c. peanut butter
1tsp. vanilla

Mix the 4 ingredients and boil about 1 minute, then add the last 3 ingredients and mix well. Drop on wax paper. Cool and serve.

Sounds good right? Well I'm not such a fan of the peanut butter so the first batch I made with Nutella and it was super yum.

Then today I got a bit more creative and tweaked the recipe even more.
I replaced the oats with Rice Krispies (but about 6 cups, add until the krispies seem saturated and stop before it gets to tough to stir) and the peanut butter with Caramel (i used one package of Kraft caramel meltable balls, found near the chocolate chips).

YUM!!

And I shall name them Dinosaur Cookies!

I also scooped them out with an ice cream scoop and stuck 'em in the freezer to cool. But then take them out when they are cool so they don't get freezer burn.

SOOO super yum!

Let me know if you try it, or find another nice mixture. :D

oh my gosh heather, i am SO happy that you posted this! i have been craving these, and couldn't find the recipe!
 
oh I love these cookies! Unfortunately I can't eat them anymore because my little guy has a peanut allergy :(
 
mmmm - these are one of my very favs. my grandma always make them for me at christmas. we'll have to give the dinosaur version a try too. :)
 
These are Aaron's favorites and I make often enough that I could do it with my eyes closed. LOL. Only difference in our recipe is 1/2 c peanut butter and we boil for 3 minutes, not 1. Yummmmm! And oh so healthy. Har. But what a great idea making them with rice krispies!
 
My recipe for no bake cookies has coconut, and then no peanut butter! Yummy - makes me want to make them again!
 
This just reminded me - when I was young - maybe 12? - one of my best friends & I made a home video of us doing a cooking show and we were teaching our "viewers" how to make no-bakes. LOL! I wonder what happened to that video...
 
Oh, they look so yummy! I´ll try them for my boys at home - thry will love them!
 
Man Heather - you are going to make me fat! I love no bake cookies, but if I have them around I will eat them - I have no control!
 
Mmmm those look yummy! I make some with cocoa, oats and coconut...we call them poop cookies. hehe But they are delish!!

We totally love these too! I cannot make these though because I seriously have no control. I mean I would honestly eat them until I was sick I love them that much.
