No Bake Peanut Butter Butterscotch Cookies


With very little active time, this recipe is great to make if you don't have a lot of time. Neither the peanut butter nor butterscotch flavor it too overpowering. They were a bit sticky. Instead of bars, next time, I will roll them into bite-sized balls.


Ingredients
1 cups butterscotch chips 
1/4 cup sugar 
1/4 cup milk 
1/4 cup margarine
1/2 cup peanut butter (creamy or chunky)
1 cup rolled oats 


Instructions
In a small sauce pan, melt together the butterscotch, sugar, milk, and margarine. Bring the mixture to a boil, and allow it to boil for about 2 minutes.
Remove the pan from heat and stir in peanut butter until it is fully incorporated.
Stir in rolled oats.
Pour mixture into an 8x8 pan, and refrigerate for 3 hours. After it has hardened, cut into squares.

  2. I couldn't find a way to email you, so I thought I would leave a comment here in response to your question about the mini buns for my chipotle sliders. I just used wheat dinner rolls from the bakery section of the supermarket. Nothing fancy, but they did the trick.

    By the way, these cookies are making me salivate!
