Ugly Cherry Oatmeal No Bake Cookies

You had me at oatmeal and peanut butter!! PINCHED

lol It's kinda like eating PB and J lol :o)

YUM!!! We eat a big meal the middle of the day and usually split a PB&J sammie at night. These will be a perfect treat for us!

Wowzer, Wendy, these sound so goooooood!!!!

Thanks Bea!!! They are...I want to keep eating them, sure glad my daughter took over half of them home with her. :o)

Wen, change the name. They aren't ugly at all. Especially when you click on the pick and blow it up and see them up close. They look delicious and sound even better.

lol Thanks Annette! To me they look like blobs of oatmeal with raisins...lol Thank You so much Honey, they sure do taste yummy!!! :o)

Well next time you make them, roll them in balls instead and put them in little mini muffin liners. They'd be cute as heck that way and that way you won't think they're 'ugly' and you can take some dang cute pictures that way. Especially if you buy some darker color muffin liners. Just an idea since you're selling yourself short!

great choice, I usually add the baking chocolate as well. did you know that.

4. Cherries are rich in vitamins C, E, potassium, magnesium, iron, folate and fiber.
5. Cherries are referred to as “brain food”, aiding in brain health and in the prevention of memory loss.

Thanks Annette! I have actually put the "original no bake cookies" in little papers before, didn't even think of it with these! I'll have to try to remember that next time, so I can get a better pic! :o)


And thank you Stormy! I knew there was a reason I loved cherries!!! :o)

I would just spoon them into the mini liners. These look scrumptious! Can't wait to try them.
