No Bake Chocolate Oatmeal Cookies

Step 1

Place all ingredients except the oats in a medium saucepan and bring it to a boil.

Step 2

Once it starts rapidly bubbling, set a timer for 1 minute. Stirring continuously with a spatula, boil for 1 minute. Then immediately remove from the heat and stir in the oats.

Step 3

Make 1 1/2 tablespoon-sized scoops (using a size 40 cookie scoop, if you have it) and them place onto a parchment lined baking sheet. Flatten them with a buttered spoon, or press gently with your fingers. (Flavor variations: Top them with flaky sea salt, or toasted coconut and flaky sea salt for a Samoa flavor.)

Step 4

Freeze the cookies for 10 minutes. Then store refrigerated for up to 3 weeks.
