Most people call these cookies "No Bake Cookies." Growing up at our house, a dairy farm in Wisconsin, they are called "Oatmeal Fudgies." With 5 older brothers it was tough to get a taste of these gooey delights. Once I was grown and got my own place I could make them and eat as many as I want! I have been known to eat almost the whole batch. The belly-ache after isn't so great. Make them today, but make sure you hide a few for yourself.
Oatmeal Fudgies
2 cups sugar
1/2 cup butter (no substitutes)
1/2 cup milk
Boil these three ingredients until the sugar dissolves.
Add:
3 cups oatmeal (I use instant)
1 cup coconut
4 T cocoa
1 t vanilla
Mix well, eat many.
Those look good, i have to try for sure!
ReplyDeleteI love these, but I can never get them to turn out!!! And I can cook and bake just about anything. These have been the bane of my existence for years....
ReplyDeleteMaybe I'll have to give them another try!!
Ooooohh you made me hungry for some. Do you have any made? I'll come over and eat half the batch and you eat the other half, that way it won't be so bad.
ReplyDeleteYour evil I forgot all about these with 11 kids we only got about 1 cookie a piece and now I never, ever make them.

WOW! I love the idea of no bake cookies. Thanks for stopping by.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by my blog! Your cookies look great. I have had a slightly different version before where instead of coconut you use peanut butter (not sure how much). I had forgotten all about them until I saw your recipe :) I'll have to try yours.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by our blog! These cookies look amazing, definitely trying them out this weekend.
