NO BAKE TRAIL MIX COOKIES

Still I bake them at 350°F for couples of minutes. The unbaked ones taste like dough to me.

INGREDIENTS

½ C sugar

¼ C unsweetened baking cocoa

½ C butter (melted)

1 C milk

1 C peanut butter (homemade, without any additions)

6 C rolled oats

2½ C trail mix (mine included almonds, cashews and raisins)

INSTRUCTIONS

As my usual doing, mix all the dry ingredients first then add in the wet ingredients one by one blend really well and then make them into cookie shape or you can make it into rolls, wrap in plastic wraps, put it in fridge for couples of hours, and then cut into pieces (quarter inch).

animal cookies

Here is the recipe for the animal cookies that I found from the web, as usual, I take out some the ingredients from it, such as vanilla extract and the like, try to make it as simple as possible for me.

Why animal cookies? Every time when I go grocery shopping, I don’t why, I just have the urge to buy them. And I love the shape of them, also I happen to have lots of shaped cookie cutter, better not waste them. So I tell myself that you better start to make your own. I cannot wait to try them very soon.

Ingredients:

2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour 

1 tsp. baking powder 

2 Tbs. (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, at room temperature 

1 cup sugar 

1 egg 

 

The direction is kind of long to read along, therefore, for me, I’ll just use the simplest steps for it. Only the following 2 things, I think is important for now.

Note:

Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and chill the dough in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours or up to 2 days.

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.

Bake the cookies until very light golden brown, not for too long, maybe 12-14 minutes, since they kind of thin dough.
