Every holiday my kitchen is a madhouse.When my oven is filled with savory dishes for everyone to enjoy, I can run out of oven space for desserts. That’s when I turn to my favorite no bake cookie recipes. They let me make amazing desserts right on the stove.

You can even put one of your older children in charge of the no bake cookies,which will allow them to be more involved, and you can work on other items from the “to-do” list.
Iabsolutely love how simplethese cookies are.Mostof the time they are an easy cleanup (doesn’t everyone like an easy clean upduring the holidays?) and can be stored in a covered container until they are needed.
