This is yet another “Monkey” Themed food we served at my daughters party.”Gorilla Poops” :)Once again, this is a recipe I previously posted, but its always fun to relive and redo recipes!Growing up, we always called them Gorilla Poops. I know it’s a strange name, but that is what I know them as!
GORILLA POOPS aka (NO BAKE COOKIES)
2 cups sugar
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup butter
4 T. cocoa
2-1/2 cups oats
2 tsp. vanilla
1/2 cup peanut butter or nutella
Cook sugar, milk, butter, and cocoa over moderate heat until mixture comes to a full rolling boil. Once mixture is a full rolling boil, cook for 1 minute. Remove from heat Add oats, vanilla, and peanut butter (or nutella). Mix until well blended. Spoon onto waxed paper and let cool.
Enjoy!
Looks yummy even with the funny name. :)
I use this recipe quite often (especially in the summer when I don't want to turn the stove on). They are delicious. :) I usually try to under cook mine just a little so they stay a little moist in the center.
hahaha that is the funniest name ever! I practically grew up on no bake cookies (LOVE THEM) and I think it is just hilarious how you call them Gorilla Poops. I just might have to make some soon just so I can call them that. haha Thanks for sharing!Brie @ BreezyPinkDaisies
That's funny! We called them Goose poops in our family, not really sure why! Nice to know we are not alone in our crazy names for these.
haha love the name!
I still have fond memories of covering every available surface with wax paper and making dozens and dozens of these as a teenager. Usually I even put a couple in the freezer so I could eat them faster! Yum.
oh my gosh! thank you for posting these!!I LOVED these as a kid!ShannonSweet Stella's
I think I do have this recipe already, but somehow they are more enticing with the new name :-)
Love no bakes. But using the quick oats tends to make them dry tasting. I have used regular old fashioned oats and they have a better taste, texture, and seem to stay moist and yummy.
I found this recipe via Pinterest and omg…soooo good! They're slightly addictive! The pb to chocolate ratio is perfection in this recipe! They were perfect when I was craving something chocolatey but I didn't want to have to wait for anything to bake :) Thanks for sharing the recipe. I'll definitely make them again and again!
Hi, We always use 1 cup of coconut instead of nutella or peanut butter. Thanks for the variation-will defnitely give it a try! Regards Dawn
My favorite cookies, I always add 1/2 cup coconut as well.
They are great! Growing up we called them dinosaur poop. I think everyone has a name for them.i never thought of useing biscoff with them.
We grew up calling them Cow Patties and I love them. I have also heard them called Dooky Wads. However bad the names, I still would like to have some right now. I definitely can’t eat just one.
