Haystacks, Fiddle Diddles, No Bake Cookies Oh My!!

These are one of my kids favorite things! Shepard and I just made a big batch together and I realized that I should add this recipe here so it can be logged as one of our Family Recipe’s. At least my kids will all know how to bake when they leave home—KD, Ichiban and baking—they are covered! hahaha!

This recipe also has several names as I have discovered. These No Bake cookies remind me of being a kid, but this was a recipe shared with me by an old friend who got it from her mom.

Ingredients:

1/2 cup butter

2 cups sugar

1/2 cup milk

6 TBSP Cocoa

3 cups rolled oats (not quick oats)

1 cup shredded sweetened coconut

1 tsp vanilla

pinch of salt

Directions:

Put butter, sugar and milk into a saucepan. Heat on medium, stirring often until it comes to a boil. Remove from heat. Add all remaining ingredients. Stir well. Drop by tablespoon onto waxed paper. Place in fridge to set. Also taste great straight from the freezer! Enjoy!
