2quilt’s Recipe for No Bake Cookies At 5600 feet Sea Level
2 cups white (or brown) sugar
4 ounces butter, NOT margarine (1/2 stick)
2/3 cup milk
1 cup flake coconut
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
1 cup peanut butter (or almond or cashew)
3 cups quick cook oats
1 teaspoon vanilla (or almond or liqueur) extract
Waxed paper
Mix sugar, milk and butter in 2 quart pan on low heat and break up butter until it melts. Get the coconut, the chocolate chips, peanut butter and oats all ready in their separate measuring cups or bowls ready. Turn up the stove to medium (not too hot or it will burn the milk) to get the sugar-milk-butter mixture to a rolling boil and stir constantly. Time that roiling boil for *exactly 60 seconds*. Remember to stir constantly to keep the milk from burning. the At the 60 second mark, remove the pan completely from the heat, pour in the coconut, chocolate, peanut butter and oats, and Stir! Stir! Stir! Add the teaspoon of extract and keep stirring. When it is all mixed, drop by spoonfuls on waxed paper and let the cookies sit for about 2 hours to setup (harden) before checking on them. They will appear like pasture pies, but they will taste heavenly. Husbands may perform quality control at this time. Makes between 25-30 cookies.
