Posted in response to a request, I got this recipe from a lady at church who make them for Bible School in the 1980s. I had made chocolate no-bake cookies for YEARS but had never heard of peanut butter no bake cookies. So delicious that my choco-holic daughter likes them better than the chocolate variety! No. of servings depends on how big you make the cookies. Prep time depends on how fast you are scooping the cookies onto the wax paper covered newspaper! (You get better w/ practice! :D )

48 cookies (change servings and units)

Wonderful treat! I made these using Splenda sugar mix to cut the sugar. I also used 1/2 & 1/2, a bit less than the half cup then diluted with water (had no milk in the home) and real butter. Since the recipe needs to be boiled 2 mins when using granulated sugar to dissolve, I didn't need to boil this mixture, just brought it up in temp then took it off the heat. A heaping cup of peanut butter, then added oats by sight..I tend to put less oats in and just let the mix sit for just a minute on the counter. I also keep stirring this mix when spooning out so that not 1 cookie gets that dry look, actually quite shiny and pretty! Thank You for sharing, Impera_Magna

    Good gracious, these are heavenly! I thought I had reviewed these over a year ago. My kids go just crazy over these. I ended up putting your recipe in a little recipe scrapbook I made my neice for a wedding gift and this is one of her favorite recipes from it. Thank you so much for posting this!

    YUMMY!! This was great! My kids could not get enough and neither could my husband or myself...I did add about 2 tbsp. of chocolate ice cream sauce to give it that reese peanut butter cup taste..also, we found that the batter was quite runny and felt the cookies would just turn to big blobs, so I greased a baking dish and poured the whole thing in there, let it set and cut into squares, this was much faster than scooping individual cookies anyway. Thanks a bunch.

    I made these for Bible school and they were a hit. Instead of dropping onto waxed paper, I poured it into a pan and cut into small squares. Thanks!
