I keep thinking that life will slow down a little and I can get back in the kitchen. Between moving and vacationing, I’ve definitely missed being in the kitchen! My vacation was a road trip – in a RV – around the Great Lakes area and up into Canada. RV kitchens are not full size kitchens, but after a few days I can’t resist and have to bake something anyway! =) I usually try to bake something with minimal ingredients. For some reason, no bake cookies kept popping up in my mind but I knew I couldn’t make no-bake cookies going down the road….and then I spotted a recipe for microwave no-bake cookies. Say what?!? Best idea ever! Dessert without heating up the kitchen – perfect for summer. And swapping out the peanut butter for Nutella pretty much makes these cookies irresistible! I may have eaten a couple (or 3) before they had even cooled enough to hold their shape ;). Enjoy!
No-Bake Nutella Cookies
1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup milk
1/4 cup cocoa powder
2 cups sugar
1/2 cup nutella
3-1/2 cups quick oats
1. Microwave butter, milk, cocoa powder, and sugar in large microwave safe bowl for 3 minutes. Stir and microwave for 2 minutes more.
2. Stir in nutella and oats until combined.
3. Drop onto wax paper or lightly greased aluminum foil and let set until firm (~an hour).

after you put the cookie stuff on the wax paper, what do you do next? sorry. c:
Hi Alyssa,
After you drop the cookies on the wax paper, just let them set until they firm up…and then eat them! =)
Thanks for stopping by!
