Chocolate Peanut Butter No Bake Cookies

• Last night I was sitting on the couch with my hubby, and he said, "You know what sounds really good is no bake cookies," or "poop" cookies as he referred to them as a child.  I headed downstairs and sure enough, I had some oats.  When I came back upstairs I told him "Ask, and ye shall receive!"  20 minutes later these cookies were cooling on the counter and he was taken back to his childhood (and mine for that matter!)

• It's fun to make those childhood favorites that bring back lots of memories :)  It's one of those recipes I am sure to find in any ward or neighborhood cookbook, because everyone loves them and reminds them of years past.  Enjoy!
