Chocolate Peanut Butter No Bake Cookies


I'm sure most of you have made no bake cookies at some point in your life.  I know I sure loved them as a kid--actually.  One of the best things about no bake cookies is that they're made up of 
pantry/fridge staples and come together quickly.  Thankfully, it only takes a couple of tweaks to make these gluten and dairy free.

You'll need:
2 Cups Sugar
4 Tablespoons Cocoa Powder
1 Stick (1/2 Cup) Earth Balance
1/2 Cup Unsweetened Original Almond Milk
1 Cup Peanut Butter
1 Tablespoon Vanilla
3 Cups Gluten Free Oatmeal
Waxed Paper or Oil Sprayed Foil

Bring the sugar, cocoa, Earth Balance, and almond milk to a boil in a heavy pan.  Boil for one minute.  Stir in the peanut butter, vanilla, and oatmeal.  Drop, by spoonful, onto the waxed paper or foil.  Let them cool/harden and eat up.

Or, if you're like me, put a bit of the mixture in a bowl or mug for yourself first.  I honestly like eating the warm mixture more than the cookies!
