No Bake Cookie Recipe like Chocolate Rum Balls & Chocolate Oatmeal Cookie Recipe

This no bake cookie recipe is so simple to make. Often we think that if something is too easy to prepare, it just cannot taste good. Not true! These little no bake date balls have just the right combination of ingredients to make them delicious. Children love them and they brighten up a tray of your Christmas cookie recipes. These little no bake cookies are not just for the holiday recipes but anytime of the year. Roll them in red and green tinted coconut or colored sugar for Christmas recipes, light pastels for the Easter recipes or for anytime of the year use white powdered sugar.

SMORES RECIPE

This smores recipe is a no bake cookie recipe that every single person should experience. It is one which we had at every cook out throughout my life as far back as I can remember. The thought is horrendous of thinking about any child who has not experienced sitting around the campfire and roasting marshmallows to make this delicious smores recipe. I am giving you an oven recipe even though I prefer roasting the marshmallows over a campfire.

For 4 servings (but I would plan for more):

• 4 Small chocolate bars


• 8 Large graham crackers


• 12 marshmallows NOTE: I saw in the store in TN the giant campfire roasting marshmallows- I bet those are great!)

Place chocolate bars on 4 graham crackers and place on cookie sheet.

Broil until chocolate bars begin to melt; add 3 marshmallows to each cracker and chocolate.

Return under broiler until marshmallows are slightly brown.

Remove from oven and top with another graham cracker.
