Oatmeal No-Bake Cookies

For a change of pace, instead of prattling on about my books, I decided to share one of my favorite recipes of all time. Ever since I can remember, I’ve loved these chewy, chocolaty treats and could easily eat a dozen in one sitting (not that I do anymore). My mother-in-law actually introduced me to this particular version. Give them a try and let me know what you and your family think of them.

2 cups granulated sugar
1 stick butter
½ cup milk
12 oz. bag semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 heaping tablespoon peanut butter
1 tsp vanilla
3 cups oats

In large saucepan, mix sugar, butter, and milk. Bring to a boil and boil for 2 minutes. Remove from heat. Add chocolate chips, peanut butter, vanilla, and oats. Mix well. Drop in rounded tablespoonful’s of the mixture onto waxed paper and let cool until firm. Enjoy!!

Bio:

Mysti Parker (pseudonym) is a full time wife, mother of three, and a writer. Her first novel, A Ranger’s Tale was published in January, 2011 by Melange Books, and the second in the fantasy romance series, Serenya’s Song, was published in April 2012. The highly anticipated third book, Hearts in Exile, has already received some great reviews. The Tallenmere series has been likened to Terry Goodkind’s ‘Sword of Truth’ series, but is probably closer to a spicy cross between Tolkien and Mercedes Lackey.

Mysti’s other writings have appeared in the anthologies Hearts of Tomorrow, Christmas Lites, and Christmas Lites II. Her flash fiction has appeared on the online magazine EveryDayFiction. She has also served as a class mentor in Writers Village University’s six week free course, F2K.

Mysti reviews books for SQ Magazine, an online specfic publication, and is the proud owner of Unwritten, a blog voted #3 for eCollegeFinder’s Top Writing Blogs award. She resides in Buckner, KY with her husband and three children.
