Healthy No Bake Cookies

Recipe #137725 | 8 min | 5 min prep | add private note

By: ShaGun
Sep 16, 2005

I played around with my family's No Bake Cookie recipe and produced a single portion of this cookie that I feel is healthy enough to eat as a meal. They’re still very good but are much healthier. I keep getting asked for the recipe, so I finally decided to measure out the exact portions and post the recipe. THIS RECIPE IS VERY FLEXIBLE! When I make them I NEVER measure out anything and I often add more or less of ingredients and they still taste great. I sometimes leave out the wheat germ and flax seeds and just add more oatmeal. I have made these replacing the sugar with about 3 tablespoons of honey. I have changed the recipe from 1 tsp. to 1 Tbsp. of cocoa powder.

SERVES 12 , 12 cookies (change servings and units)

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1
    Heat milk, sugar and cocoa powder over high heat until boiling, stirring constantly.
  2. 2
    Take off heat and stir in vanilla and peanut butter; stir until peanut butter has melted completely.
  3. 3
    Stir in wheat germ and oatmeal.
  4. 4
    Drop by large spoonfuls onto wax paper or eat immediately.

    These are SUCH an indulgence. I found the reaipe only gave about 10 smaller cookies, but they were 10 i could eat in a single sitting xD I used smooth peanutbutter, and I used half oatmeal, half cornflakes. They turned out great!

    I am obsessed with these. The first time I made them I used 1 full tsp of cocoa because I like them a little more chocolate-y and we loved them. The next time I doubled the batch and used a full tbsp. of cocoa powder. That accomplished the chocolate-y ness I wanted. I thought I had enough ingredients but I realized I was low on oatmeal. So I added extra wheat germ and I really enjoyed it. I will definitely make these again. No bake cookies are my favorite and I love that these don't have a ton of butter! Thanks so much! This one is a winner!

    Excellent! Healthy but still delicious. I made the recipe as directed, refrigerating the cookies to firm them up. Everyone has tasted no bake cookies, but these are a real find. I actually prefer these to the traditional recipe which I always found too sweet. Wheat germ and flax seed are a great addition. I like ladypit's suggestion of adding more cocoa for a more chocolatey version, too. ShaGun, you're a genius, thanks for sharing your recipe!
