No-Bake Cookies
I presently do not own an oven, so do you have a no-bake cookie recipe?
—Martha
Hi Martha,
I’ve got a few no-bake cookies you can choose from: Chocolate Oat Bars come together quickly, but need to set in the refrigerator for a few hours before enjoying. Peanut Butter Crunch Bars are delicious bar cookies made crunchy with cornflakes. You can make my Crispy Rice Pumpkin Treats in different shapes (and use different food coloring) to fit the occasion or season. Crispy Rice Shapes is a similar recipe that adds chocolate to the fun! And you might want to check out my No-Bake Recipes page for more treats that don't require an oven!

Question
I have tried multiple ideas for beef and noodles, but they always taste the same to me. (Or I overdo it and it's simply horrible.) There must be a recipe that spruces up a family favorite. ... I am just looking for more flavor - not salty flavor, just more or different flavor. Can it be done? Is it possible to add flavor without losing the tried and true taste? Please advise.
And, thank you for all of your great recipes and ideas. My family loves when I bring home a new recipe from you. :)
