I'll try all the recipes given!

And thank you for the recipes wolftrack and BettyR!

Arabianequine- I don't know how to bake 'make no bakes'

I think I should invest in a BYC cookbook

No bake cookies

1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup milk
1 cup sugar
4 tablspoons cocoa powder
1/2 cup peanut butter
3 1/2 cups oatmeal

Step 1:

Spread several sheets of wax paper across a table or other flat surface. I just put on a cookie sheet or 2.

Step 2:

In a large sauce pan over medium heat, combine the butter, milk, sugar, and cocoa powder. Bring contents to a boil, stirring occasionally. Boil for one minutes, then remove from the stove and set aside.

Step 3:

Add the peanut butter 1st when melted in and stirred in then ad the oatmeal to the melted mixture, stirring together well.

Step 4:

Drop teaspoons of the mixture onto the wax paper and allow the cookies to cool for 15 minutes. I put them in the frig to cool then in a bag or container. If hot in your house I would keep them in the frig.

You know it was kind of funny that she asked for cookie recipes and 2 of us posted Peacan Bars. LOL

Even if you can't bake, try these bars. First time I made them was a little over 10 years ago. Made them for Christmas and even people who weren't peacan nuts loved them.

Guess I need to add a chocolate recipe.

Thing is I made those bars the first time because my daughter had a tree in her yard, so pecans were running out of our ears. They're my favorite so I wanted to use them as much as I could. Those bars are rich enough to take the place of chocolate. I wasn't sure they'd even be eatten, but people were asking me to take them out of the way because they couldn't stop grabbing them up.

OK.........nothing takes the place of chocolate. Although I'm very picky about mine and don't like most candy bars. And dark chocolate is my very favorite.

Oh we bakers could have real fun with you. J/K

Baking is easy to do. All you have to do is follow a recipe and not reduce or change it. It's all about the chemistry and if you're following a recipe then you're set. My favorite new recipe is for lemon cake that everyone just loves. I love that everyone loves it so much. It makes the 1 1/2hrs it takes to make it worth while.

I like to bake only what other people find impossible like the lemon cake, or butter horn cookies (aka Rugelach), or mini tart cookies(just like mini pecan pies).

Oh I love Texas Sheetcake. I don't know what it is about it...why it's so different from "regular" cake, but it's so delicious. It doesn't last 2 days in my house....and there's only 2 of us.

Why not chocolate? Is it a heart issue or an issue with the dutch processing? I had a grandmother with heart issues and so she couldn't have chocolate because it would increase her heart rate. My sister on the other hand has severe migraines and she cannot have most chocolate because it's process with Alkali in the "Dutch process" method. I found that Nestle's Tollhouse sells cocoa powder without the Alkali and she can have that instead.

I have lemon sheetcake recipe and a pumpkin sheet cake recipe too.

I think I like the white sheet cake better then the chocolate so far that is all I have tried. The lemon is next.
