These no-bake cookies aren't pretty but don't let that fool you. The peanut butter version of these are a favorite of many and quite popular but we don't do peanut butter in our house. I've been looking for a good version without peanut butter for some time. I've made a version with butterscotch pudding which were good but a little bit over-the-top sweet and I know many people are not a fan of that fake butterscotch flavor.
This recipe was a winner. Most of my coworkers love coconut and so do I. They were fudgy and delicious and I would definitely make these again. Of course I said that about the butterscotch version and I've yet to make another batch but now that I've been reminded of that recipe, I just might.
I didn't even realize it when I picked this book up but all of the recipes are nut-free. This is a photo-less book but I was still drawn to it. It seems to have a lot of recipes I haven't seen before (not very usual anymore).
