Making No-Bake Chocolate Oatmeal Cookies

[@kathy23726]

My mother made these no bake cookies. I have looking for this recipe for years! Thanks so much😊

[@nancybrister7588]

You did a good job showing us how to make these Delicious No Bake Cookies 👍👍🤗😁Just in time for the Holidays 🤗😁❤️

[@GoMommaGo]

Everyone has their way. I melt the butter and then stir in sugar and milk, then cocoa, peanut butter, then vanilla. Boil a minute, then add the oats. In that order. It literally takes about five minutes and they come out shiny and beautiful. They are a candy/fudge actually. My boys and I love em! My hubby will not eat them but He’s not right.

[@GoMommaGo]

I forgot to add that I add in about two tablespoons of real chocolate chips after the boiling stage because i think it helps the texture and boosts the chocolate flavor.

[@preachercliff2091]

Yeah, I agree! He's not right...

Hi there, I love no bake cookies! My grandmother always called them Top of the Range Cookies, we melt the butter, sugar, a pinch of salt, cocoa and milk, bring to a boil cook for 2 minutes stirring constantly. Remove from heat, stir in peanut butter until melted add minute oats, drop by tbl spoon onto parchment paper let set to harden. Also we use 4 level tbl spoons cocoa for double recipe. We do not cook it any further after removing from heat. I thought this might help so you don't have to fight with the butter trying to break it up and melt it. Your recipe is great for a small batch, I've always had to make double recipes bc I have a large family. The only thing I'd change is the amount of cocoa in a single batch but that all depends on personal taste right! Thank you for reminding me of these cookies I'm going to make some tonight!

[@phyllisculbertson7396]

I've made these using old fashioned oats and they turn out fine. You can also use coconut for some or all of the oats and it's delicious❤

[@barbarac8422]

@phyllisculbertson7396 Coconut sounds yummy too! Do you lightly toast it before adding? Or as it comes in the bag?

[@Tammy-td5ok]

yeppers!!!!!

[@denisestroop2163]

Little hint, use a sifter on the cocoa and cut up the butter = no lumps in cocoa and smaller butter :)

[@barbarac8422]

I cut my butter into tablespoon sized slices so it melts faster and I don't have to fight with it by beating it in the pan like you're doing. It's just easier and quicker.

[@preachercliff2091]

That's the way women do it... Sounds really logical...

[@mabelregimal5407]

You could also take it out of the fridge to soften before you need it.

[@barbarac8422]

@@mabelregimal5407 Yes, I do that too. Melts sooner when soft.

[@craftycat1185]

Recipe looks great I can’t take all the noise😔

[@lorraine5083]

Love this recipe… we used to make something like it when we were kids…. Bet these are better!!!!! Thanks❤

[@sarah.j.777]

Looks delish, I'm going to make these!

[@Lisa-ev6lw]

Thank you for sharing this 😊 it was easy and the cookies turned out delicious 😋

[@kimberleydaytonac7923]

Good afternoon Preacher. I just made these using this recipe and I doubled the batch. They are setting up very nicely. Thank you and I appreciate your time. GOD BLESS

[@sharongrashen1196]

Thanks for sharing 💜🙏🏼

[@nancykarause7325]

Can you do this without the peanut butter

[@preachercliff2091]

Best way to find out is to try it...

[@JanetBright-f7r]

Awesome! Gonna make some tomorrow. Thank you!

[@preachercliff2091]

Hope you enjoy

[@alisamcgrath598]

Can I bring the butter to room temperature??

[@preachercliff2091]

Yep... Cooking isn't a science, it's an art...

[@marynellconway2154]

Yummy Preacher ..‘I got your recipe and I love oatmeal cookies.. my favorite actually.. I can’t wait to make these and I’ll add pecans is all .. yeah thank you so much and I liked and subscribed to your channel.. I like to support our Christian groups .. thank you again sir and God bless one and all 🙏

[@preachercliff2091]

Thank-you. Life is good...

[@super.stitch]

❤❤❤ Delicious!!! Just use a wooden spoon rather. Thank you so much!

[@nancyollis1049]

I used to make these for my kids if I needed a dessert for lunches, kids at school called them candy cookies ALOHA

[@bellydancerslc]

Thanks for sharing but my hubby that doesn’t cook said why not cut the butter into smaller pieces, you already cut it in half.

[@preachercliff2091]

Because, I'm a man and men are annoying and we do it our own way. That's too much like following some kind of instructions or asking for directions. I have a reputation to keep :)

[@teresastaggs7923]

I have an electric coil burner stove. Do I need to take it off the burner? That coil stays really hot

[@preachercliff2091]

Yes, after the mixture has boiled, take it off and add the ingredients...

[@celestearrington4801]

My son HATES peanut butter. Is there a substitute that I can use for the peanut butter in this recipe?

[@jeanetteh.9240]

Try almond butter.

[@preachercliff2091]

Good question. May have to do some experimenting...

[@ellakajfasz2569]

You don't have to put peanut butter in it at all.

[@AngelaZoch]

Looks great. Do you use salted or unsalted butter? Thank you.

[@preachercliff2091]

Either one is okay to use. My wife buys both kinds, I never pay attention, I just grab a stick of it, lol. Use whatever you prefer, it won't affect the outcome. Thanks for responding :)

[@cherylriggs1715]

Penny cookies!!😋

[@janellthornbrugh9301]

Can these cookies be frozen?

[@preachercliff2091]

I have no idea - they've never been around long enough for me to try it - LOL If you try it, let me know the results - just do a couple so as not to waste if it doesn't work...

[@janellthornbrugh9301]

Thank you, just freezing a couple is a great idea.

[@nancykarause7325]

And If I don't want the chocolate And just use the oats and sugar

[@preachercliff2091]

YES, you can add a little extra peanut butter and do away with the chocolate and make no-bake peanut butter cookies (some people don't like chocolate)

[@lh824]

Wouldn't it just be easier to melt the butter first, then add the remaining ingredients?

[@preachercliff2091]

Men don't read directions or do anything the easy way, otherwise where would our manhood be?

[@lh824]

@preachercliff2091 LOL!! And what fun would that be? Great recipe, regardless. Thanks!

[@DERB_Seymour_Indiana]

I'll have to try those. Looks good. 'Heavenly Recipes with Preacher Cliff', I can see it now. A KZbin sensation for sure! LOL

[@preachercliff2091]

They're really good and simple. I didn't edit the video any, just did it all live. I'll be a BIG FAT sensation for sure!

[@mamawfrancy]

I make no bake cookies lots - next time cut the butter into small pats it will save you time & smashing... lol. TY.

[@zaidefire8908]

I think I would use softened butter . Unless you need to beat it on the stove.. 🤷

[@preachercliff2091]

hahahha, I'm gonna behave cuz I'm a preacher! I'm doing the best I can to "beat the stove" to give my wife an excuse to buy a new one!

[@sandraash2596]

I add about 1/3 cup of coconut to this recipe. It's to die for.

[@susanchappell6856]

🎉 well sweet pea you knock that one out of the ballpark over the fence Grand Slam hardly ever you see a man making homemade fudge oatmeal cookies

[@marthastanko6758]

Thank You 4 Share'n" 🙏💪♥️😇🍞🍷

[@preachercliff2091]

Thanks for listening

[@denisel2652]

You sir must have set off all the Alexas in America

[@betsyevano9375]

Enough with beating the pan. 😂😂😂

[@preachercliff2091]

LOVE IT! Cutting the butter in the bad with a wooden spoon passes the time and makes annoying noise that drives people crazy!

[@kimlewis5429]

Thats the exact way my mom taught me ..

[@shariday9849]

From the voice of experience…don’t put a plastic bowl on a burner as a good rule to keep. It’s easy to get distracted. Disaster happens.🤦‍♀️

[@mjkay8660]

since it has to boil, has it occurred to anyone if he turns up the heat there will be less banging on the pot? im surprised he isnt wearing the pot on his head, his wife must be a saint

[@preachercliff2091]

She's more than a saint, but I'm a pretty good husband too, lol

[@dgarnett4220]

Where is recipe? Please

[@preachercliff2091]

I'll get one posted today

[@charharn7011]

Thing about Alexa she doe not know this is a video she my Alexa over herd the narrator and timed out after his. Nice idea on the cookies I have done the peanut butter this looks better thanks.

[@brysonhatfield8958]

In a mixing bowl, cream together: 1 C. butter, softened (2 sticks) 3/4 C. sugar 3/4 C. light brown sugar, firmly packed 2 eggs 2 T. buttermilk or regular milk 1 tsp. vanilla extract Sift and add: 2 1/4 C. all-purpose flour 1 tsp. salt 1 tsp. baking soda Fold in: 12 oz. semi-sweet chocolate chips 1 C. nuts, finely chopped Spread in greased dish. Bake for 25-35 minutes. Cool completely; cut into 1" squares. Delicious with a glass if ice cold milk!!

[@susanchappell6856]

Thank you so much for that recipe you're a doll baby I do appreciate that so much my grandsons are going to say yum yum Grand Mommy

[@patsyhelms1102]

Made these for many yrs. Heat the butter and milk. Much quicker and works great. Great video but please get a wooden spoon or silicone spatula. The sound is magnified and so annoying. Thanks

[@preachercliff2091]

Its meant to be annoying because I'm a man and we are annoying...

[@ljm9092]

next time slice the butter instead of banging. Goes a lot easier! LOL

[@preachercliff2091]

And dirty a knife to cut it? :) I like being an annoying man...

[@marthastanko6758]

#YumYumGetchaSum

[@nancymckay2580]

Oh no they don’t I don’t know what I did wrong put mine looked like cow Pattie’s and they never did harden

[@preachercliff2091]

I don't know what to tell you. I did it live and I have made them more times than I can count and they have always done well. The only thing I can think of is that maybe you are at a different sea level? As atmospheric pressure decreases, water boils at lower temperatures. At sea level, it boils at 212°F, while each 500-ft increase in altitude causes a drop of about 1°F in the boiling point of water. At very high altitudes, more time is required for food to reach the desired internal cooking temperature.

[@eugenia4689]

What the hell is mood juice!!??

[@preachercliff2091]

Moo juice...

[@robinharris6704]

This recipe is very good. Your teaching style and explanations were very helpful. The background noise, clanging and banging that occurred due to whatever your wife was doing was distracting and irritating to the ears. Would it be possible for your cooking to be the only activity in the kitchen while you are making your video? It would be appreciated.

[@preachercliff2091]

YEAH, I tried to tell her - hahahahahahaa

[@denisel2652]

Don’t buy a new car
