Mud Pies / Haystacks Recipe - No Bake Cookies

[@ASingleVoice84]

I’ve been looking for this recipe forever this is the recipe my mom made God rest her soul, but this is the recipe that brought back the memories Christmas’s before our family fell apart we were all so damaged after we lost her and still to this day 40 years later still all Estranged she was our glue to her family I was but a child before her young life was taken from cancer, and never learnt her recipe, because I was so young but Thankyou for bring back a piece of my child hood and very loving memories of her. Love from Canada

[@thedailydee]

April, your story brought tears to my eyes. My family became estranged after my mother died too. I have also had cancer so I get an idea of what your journey was like. I hope this recipe brings you joy. I hope the holidays are good for you and trust that I know your mom is looking down on you and loves you.

[@dgarnett4220]

Finally the original recipe! Yes they set up fast! On counter can add more oatmeal or cocoanut to thicken just 1/2 c. Ready to eat as soon as made. Yummy treats.

[@sylviamacdonald6682]

Thank you so much for sharing ! I love these cookies and they are my son's favourite cookies as well. I had lost the recipe and couldn't remember what they were called. Here in Eastern Canada 🇨🇦 we call them , " mud pies ". Thank you again for sharing.

[@thedailydee]

You are very welcome. Thanks so much for watching.

[@trudymackay424]

Helpful for using scoop

[@thedailydee]

I agree

You're very welcome.

Its wonderful your helping people in your community.

[@thedailydee]

Well, I may be homeless one day. I would hope someone would help me as well.

[@squ1shyf1shy]

These are so delcious! These are my grandma's favorites, she has Alzheimer's so it's always nice for me to make these for her and have us eat them together. They're some of my fondest memories 💞 thank-you for putting this recipe out there! Very helpful :)

Your account looks like your an average 10-12 year old, lol.

[@dgarnett4220]

You have to move fast or set up in pot

[@joaningalls2817]

Mix the sugar and cocoa together before adding the milk and butter. Much easier to get the cocoa mixed in. I use 1/2 cup coconut and 1/2 cup chopped walnuts. Love these cookies.

[@TW1257]

To me,Haystacks have chow mein noodles and butterscotch chips. I call these no bake or chocolate oatmeal cookies.

[@tinaandersen1421]

No bakes thats what i call them yummmmmmm

[@thedailydee]

Thanks Tina. I love how easy they are. Hard part is waiting for them to dry out.

[@icefireobsidian7490]

It might be Canadian but I call what you made a mudpie and the haystacks are the ones with the chow mein noodles and peanut butter.

[@thedailydee]

See that is exactly how I refer to both cookies, same as you. Yet so many people have told me, no, those aren't mud pies they are haystacks. Haystacks to me are beige (peanut butter, butterscotch chips and chow mien noodles) and haystacks are brown (like mud).

[@icefireobsidian7490]

@@thedailydee well you got someone who agrees with you on the names.. lol

[@thedailydee]

Awww thanks!

[@Hello-xt5ik]

I love this women

[@littlelorib7980]

Can you substitute the cocoa for chocolate syrup

[@jessicam6532]

These are like the Little Debbie "Star Crunch" cookies! Thank you!! I'm so excited to make these with my boys.

[@englishatheart]

No they're not. Those cookies are puffed rice, caramel, and "fudge." Not even close to the same. :-P

[@user-uz5uk1mt5s]

Can you use Nutella instead of peanutbutter

[@thedailydee]

Absolutely

[@lubabe9969]

I love these, I use peanut butter instead of cocoa. I love anything with peanut butter.

[@dragons8822]

Could I use Stevia, Truvia or honey instead of sugar ? Which I can't have.

[@darlenemiller9990]

My mom was looking for this recipe today! I think the recipe card, which she didn’t find, says Refrigerator or Icebox Cookies. I’m going to mix up a pan of them right now. 😊Jan

[@wildedibles819]

Haystacks 🇨🇦here I showed my kids how to make them in the microwave then we'll there was no more cocoa left lol

[@annaskendos4758]

Love this video....never heard of these before but looking forward to trying them. Can you add chopped nuts ( maybe walnuts? " to these? Looking forward to look up more of your recipes and subscribe to your channel.👍🤗

[@radow869]

We called it Mississippi mud cookies.

[@bluebird4667]

adding the cocao to the wet mixture is the time consuming way of making this. To save time and fussing with the bits of coco add and mix the cocao to the dry mixture of cocnut and oats. then mix the two parts (wet and dry) together. So much faster - same result.

[@mattg5852]

My mom would make these and called the Mississippi mud pies and her recipe used peanut butter in it.

[@dgarnett4220]

Use a whisk to blend

[@thedailydee]

Thanks for the idea!

[@crtle4701]

My Nana taught us how to make them and she called them Chocolate drops

[@thedailydee]

Really? Never heard them called that. I learned something new today. Thank you.

[@dgarnett4220]

Never ever pat them down! Please. Haystacks thinks high 😳😳😳😜

[@itsasetxilla2500]

Dang I make this easy chocolate and peanutbutter but chunky and cookies or the little thingy noodles

[@dgarnett4220]

No peanut butter please, why ruin a good treat 😜👍👍👍 4:04

[@aggroblu9753]

It is a good treat! You’re just picky 😜

[@dgarnett4220]

No this is perfect without peanut butter ❤❤❤ she did well! Yes I am picky and reward great baking, cooking! ❤❤👍👍🌹

[@ArdaBland]

Thank you for the quick recipe. can we use the regular oats instead of quick oats and also is it sweetened coconut or unsweetened?

[@thedailydee]

I used sweetened although not everyone does. I use regular oats too if I don't have quick on hand.

[@ArdaBland]

@@thedailydee Thank you for the quick reply I got the sweetened coconut now so I can make them with my regular oatmeal😁

[@Native935]

If I add peanutbutter, how much would I add?

[@vickifrakes2761]

Your recipe is the only one I’ve come across that is like my Mom’s recipe she went by. No peanut butter.

[@ashlynn9871]

Can I use quick oats instead of dry oats or are they the same thing?

[@dgarnett4220]

Rolled oats old fashioned

[@phantp78]

Tip just melt chocolate chips. Haystacks are made with fried chow mein noodles. If you used coconut or oatmeal they are bird’s nest.

[@CatCatCaat]

Are you doing a live Today Dee?

[@thedailydee]

No sorry, Jessie is just way too sick.

[@markmaclean2353]

Every little bit helps.

[@pavelow235]

My relatives would call these mud cookies they're from rural Arkansas. Never heard them called pies before.

[@Pheonix1328]

I just tried making these and it turned into a dry flaky mess... Clearly cooking it for 5 minutes, which two different recipes said, is totally wrong and medium-high heat is too much. I added the vanilla right away instead of after, does this make a difference? I melted my butter beforehand but I don't think that would make much of a difference. I'm not a big fan of coconut so I only added 1/2 C. but I don't think that would make much difference either.

[@thedailydee]

Sorry to hear of your issues. I would perhaps suggest using less oatmeal to make them more moist. Always add the vanilla after you take it off the heat. Vanilla extract is made by soaking vanilla beans in alcohol and then letting it ferment for months. When you add the vanilla in high heat the alcohol in the vanilla burns off and you lose a lot of that vanilla flavour.

[@Pheonix1328]

@@thedailydee I tried making them again and only cooked them for a minute or so and they turned out almost perfect. The other recipes I saw were just completely wrong about the whole five minutes thing.

[@SummerHawaii582]

You can do just coconut for the haystacks.

[@dgarnett4220]

No

[@violetdalton9633]

How could you make this sugar free

[@TW1257]

Use a sugar substitute that's cup to cup.

[@Justme-Diana]

we call them chocolate kisses

[@thedailydee]

I have never heard them referred to at that but I love the name. I might just have to refer to them by that name from now on.

[@pattib9264]

Haystacks have shredded coconut, Mud Pies don't. That's the only difference.

[@VStag]

MMMud

[@thedailydee]

Aww thank you!

[@joycemartin4889]

YOU TALK WAY TOO MUCH !!!!!!! MAYBE YOU COULD MOVE JUST A LTTLE FASTER!

[@thedailydee]

Wow, aren't you lovely! If you have the attention span of 30 seconds or less you need to stick to short videos instead of getting angry at creators who make videos of more than 20 seconds. Doing so might relieve you of all that pent of anger you have inside. Lashing out at a creator because they just won't give you what you need in 2 seconds is fruitless. I hope you have a wonderful day and manage to get through it without being rude to someone else.

[@doladutta-roy8937]

You are right. An extremely slow vdo. Needs to be edited. It is stressful to see her churning n churning to get the butter melted. The easiest thing would have been to melt the butter first b4 putting the other ingredients to mix together. Not everybody has nothing to do but watch someone deliberate

[@dgarnett4220]

Use a whisk ! Turn up heat. Yawn

[@mariepereira6477]

Good grief we know we’re in crisis can you get on with the recipe do not want to stress I just want to watch food recipes

[@thedailydee]

Sorry you are so disappointed. I hope you recover quickly from being so over stressed. Have a lovely evening.

[@patsummer135]

YIKES!!!! 🙈😵😬I stopped watching when she added the 1st ingredient ☹️ that's waaaaay 🙅🏻‍♀️ WAY too much sugar for me🤗
