Dark Chocolate Peanut Butter Oatmeal Cookies
Dark Chocolate Peanut Butter Oatmeal Cookies
When I think of homemade chocolate oatmeal cookies it takes me back to my childhood. It was something my family made and served more often than not at family gatherings. It takes me back to home. My nostalgia for these cookies made me want to pass on the tradition to my own kids so I whipped up a batch to introduce my children to them. These cookies are pretty simple to make and taste really good! They do not require baking but you do have to use the stove top for a couple of minutes. I did make one change to the recipe. I used Hershey's Special Dark Cocoa Powder instead of plain cocoa powder. You can choose which ever you prefer but I do highly recommend the dark chocolate.
