The chocolate peanut butter no-bake cookies are one of my childhood favorites!
I usually enjoy baking for my family, but today it was 101 degrees and I did not feel like turning on the oven. Even on hot days, my children require a bit of sugar to keep them sweet, so I made these easy Chocolate Peanut Butter No-Bake Cookies.

I don’t have a real kitchen, nor the energy I had when I was younger, so super-easy recipes are what I need to move my menu above eating out of a can. How embarrassing.

No bake cookies – an old favorite at our house! We like to make fruit ice creams with frozen bananas, strawberries, or peaches. So unbelievably good!

We had the floats; and the next day, the men in my family couldn't resist polishing off the bottle of root beer! So for round two tonight, I resorted to Pepsi floats. Just as good!
