chocolate oatmeal no-bake macaroons
tomorrow is peter's birthday and he says that he likes coconut macaroons so i was looking up some recipes. they sound easy enough....except that i came across this one that has oatmeal and chocolate as well....and made these instead. so i have this feeling that he won't actually like this version. they don't taste like or have the texture of coconut macaroons at all!
ingredients:
3/8 cup butter
1 cup sugar
1/4 cup milk
1/2 cup flaked coconut
1.5 cup rolled oats
1/4 cup cocoa powder
a tiny bit of vanilla + almond extract
directions:
1. combine the butter + sugar + milk + vanilla/almond in a saucepan over medium heat and bring to a boil for 2 minutes.
2. remove from heat and add in the rest of the ingredients.
3. mix well and then drop spoonfuls onto a wax paper lined cookie sheet.
4. put cookies in the fridge or just let them cool + harden.
5. thats it!

i thought they were pretty good :) i'm not sure if it's bc i knew they were no-bake, but it tasted a little more unique! and wow, gossip girl - so much drama :)
