There’s nothing like a no-bake recipe, they might even just be some of my favourite recipes. It makes me thinks back to my childhood when I started “baking”. These cookies are so easy to make, you don’t even have to turn on the oven and they are great of any impatient baker that needs their sweet treat NOW.
Give your oven a break and get out your pan and spatula because even though no baking is involved, a little bit of cooking is needed to make a batch of these indulgent treats.
Did I mention that the ingredients are made up out of staple ingredients that you always have in your pantry?
