One of my favorite and fairly quick cookie recipes is No-Bake Cookies. They're a relatively healthy and a filling cookie due to the quick oats and are easy to pack for a school day snack for Eric and I. I won't tell you the nickname we've given them until after you've tried them for yourselves! This recipe comes from an old ward compassionate recipe book.
2 cups sugar
1/2 cup cocoa
1/2 cup milk
1 stick margarine
1/2 cup peanut butter (chunky or creamy is just fine)
3 cups quick oats
Combine the sugar, cocoa, milk, and margarine into a saucepan. Put on medium heat, stir often and bring to a boil. Take off of heat and stir in peanut butter and then the oats. Drop by spoonfuls onto cookie sheets covered with wax paper. Cool in refrigerator. Eat up!

These were always a family favorite of ours and about the only thing my brother knew how to cook! He used to get creative and add all sorts of things, like coconut, ice cream, yogurt, anything! And one time we had a German-exchange student helping make them and put in cinnamon instead of cocoa! GROSS!!! But she still ate them.
Ah yes, poor Julia!
