Julie, thanks so much for the recipe. I thought only Oklahoma knew this fantastic cookie. This was “THE” cookie to make for 4H in grade school, where we all learned it from. I have always cooked my cookies for 2 minutes and never needed to put it in the fridge to harden up. I agree with Kathy, it doesn’t matter if they don’t set up sometimes (on humid days) we would just scoop them up, who cares about a spoon! Another good trick is to NOT put in the cocoa powder and it will strickly be a peanut butter no bake. Just as yummy.

These are my all time favorite cookies, but we called them Chocolate Oatmeal Cookies and like you, we never refrigerated or froze them……….but have eaten many with a spoon.

My family has made these cookies for years–the only difference is that we don’t refrigerate or freeze them. Just set them out on the counter and they will firm up on their own in a few minutes–but make sure you boil them for exactly a minute or they either be too soft or too brittle. They are great for a quick chocolate fix. Even when they are too soft, we’ll eat them off the waxed paper with a spoon!
