It's may not officially be Summer yet but It is definitely close around here. I know some of you are already having 100 degree weather. Whew!
Who wants to heat their kitchen in HOT HOT weather? Not me! So today I am offering up a Humdinger of a cookie that is No-Bake. Now this is a bit of a Holiday thing but who cares? When you are craving a cookie in 100 degree weather, this one will fit the bill.
So whip up a batch and get outta that kitchen y'all. It's Summer Time!
PS. I will be adding more no bake cookies for the Summer.

ReplyDeleteThose sound quiet delish! I will wait for Suzi to cook some so that I can steal them from her. Teeheehee...

ReplyDeleteThese are the best no bake cookies ever! i made them last year for christmas, and everyone loved them. I am actually making them tomorrow night for a christmas gathering!
ReplyDeleteMy late grandmother used to make these. She rolled them into small little crescent shapes. They were divine... can't wait to try this recipe. Unfortunately as a child, I didn't have the appreciation to know to ask for her recipes. Sure I'm not the first to let those precious gems slip by. Thank you for your recipe.
ReplyDeleteWe actually CALL these Humdingers in my family, is that where your play on words comes from? These are a Christmas favorite around here!
