No bake cookie/bar recipes needed

zyxst · December 2016

I'm trying to get my Xmas baking done, but getting access to the oven portion of the stove is, for some reason, impossible this year. I'll take anything that isn't a variation of the oatmeal-PB-chocolate drop cookies. That's the only recipe Google spits out at me when I search for no bake cookies.

Cookies/bars I'm already making
- Rice Krispies treats
- cherry mash bars
- rum balls

Easy Buckeye Bars

These are kind of like Rice Krispies Treats, but 10,000 times better: Scotcheroos

Or there's a ton of no-bake cheesecake recipes out there.

How do you feel about simple candies? Like chocolate covered pretzels or peanut clusters. I've even seen recipes for candy/nut cluters made in the slow cooker.

The Toronto Star does a Christmas Cookie Calendar, today's actually is a no-bake one! Cranberry-Lemon Oat.

My family does a chocolate-coconut-oat thing we call haystacks, as well as peanut brittle. I can shoot you both recipes when I get home if you want!

My brain is somewhere else today. These are great, thank you.

Family favourites from the Canadian prairies (I found a link for you):

How about icebox cakes?

I did a variation once with strawberries, sweetened ricotta with some vanilla, and whipped cream, and it was fantastic.

Just made 'chocolate chip cookie dough bars' its a no bake, and a huge hit, just google it, very simple recipe and I was able to make it gluten and dairy free, without compromising it in any way.

Its almost like a cookie dough fudge and I topped my with a chocolate glaze.

Best of luck!

Cream cheese mints are evil. Love 'em though.

If you can't even get to the stove just make truffles. You can heat up the cream in the microwave; the only other appliance you need is the fridge.

Chocolate dipped Oreo truffles. They're to die for! I like to dip them in white chocolate or those vanilla-tasting Hershey's white chips to cut the chocolate taste a little, otherwise they're EXTREMELY rich.

The recipe is basically one family pack of Oreos (420g? Something like that.), 8 oz. package of cream cheese, and any chocolate that you like. Pulse the Oreos into crumbs, mix with the cream cheese, dip in melted chocolate. Voila!

Yum! I did Nutter Butter cookies & cream cheese - dipped in chocolate. So easy (I recommend Wilton's candy coating).

This thread is inspiring!!! Since my oven isn't a good one, I might try out some of the ideas posted on here.

zyxst · December 2016

I made a batch of cream cheese mints and I remember why I don't make cream cheese mints. All that hand mixing, ugh. At least I didn't have to press them into moulds this time.

KitchenAid stand mixer FTW.

I thought about using the electric mixer, but it gets a tad smoky mixing up too much dry ingredient into wet. All that powdered sugar would've burned out the motor. I need the biceps worked out anyway.

Ok how funny I saw this thread at the same time I was also looking at this (yeah, I have a lot of stuff open at one time)
50 Christmas Cookies You Don't Even Need an Oven to Bake
Also all the recipes in this thread look awesome and I plan to try at least some of them.
