These are great! To make these peanut butter cookies I just take the chocolate out and they are just as wonderful!

My husband can eat a whole batch of these by himself! I have made them several times and a few times they didn't quite set. Maybe I just didn't boil the mixture long enough?

Excellent directions, thank you!!! This recipe is EVERYWHERE!!! I have this one, with the same measurements, in a church cookbook, but less than helpful directions. It is absolutely crucial that the oats be added last, or they will become soft an your cookies will lose its yummy texture. For me, 7 worked perfectly on the stove. Next time I gotta remember to wear an apron though!! Ughh..Well, THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!! ~~No matter what I tell myself or how healthy I try to eat, I can't resist these!!!!! OMG good

These have been a family favorite in our home for years! I do, however, double the recipe and spread the mixture on a waxed paper lined cookie sheet. When set, cut into bars. They do freeze well, too. Thank you for posting!

They are too sweet and too moist to be called a cookie. Increased the cocoa to 1/2 cup to give it more chocolate flavor. These are more like a piece of candy or fudge than a cookie. Easy enough to do and the kids liked them.

Wow! Just Wow!! These turned out PERFECT and I've never ever had a batch of these turn out perfectly. All other recipes I've tried have turned out too soft, too hard, or tasting "off". The only thing that I did differently from the recipe was used Old Fashioned oats instead of quick ones, because they were what I had on hand, and in past struggles, I've noticed that they do "soak things up" better. I prefer a firm no bake, so this was excellent this way. This recipe yielded 2 dozen for my family. i made them yesterday afternoon and they are almost GONE already! I really think the key is that slow and short boil. I've never been told to do that before, so maybe that IS the trick! Thanks so much for this recipe!

My youngest brother adores these even though he usually doesn't like chocolate and peanut butter together. Very easy! Don't worry if it's pretty runny when you are dishing them out - they firm up. At least mine did. :D Anyway, very good. I didn't use quite as much sugar as some people suggested, and it was still great!

Okay, I've tried many no bake recipies for these cookies and FINALLY they came out right!!! I followed the recipe exactly and I guess the trick is the slow boil. Most recipies don't tell you that part. Also adding the peanut butter to the oats and NOT the chocolate, helps. We ate them and they tasted the way I remembered them as a kid. Awesome! Thank you Sherrie T!

I love it these are just what I was looking for. I would suggest that when boiling the ingredients to make sure that you get to the "soft ball" stage. If you pull them too early they will not harden. I loved them!

I agree with other reviews- the time to boil is way too low. I boiled extra and still too soft.

These cookies were great. Everyone in the family loved them. They were sweet but that is how I remember them from my childhood. I was looking for these cookies for awhile because I want my kids to grow up with them, too. Thanks for posting it....
