No-Bake S'Mores Cookie

I was having an epic chocolate craving after church today, so I decided to make some "no-bake" cookies. I whipped out my trusty Terrenton ID Ward cookbook (graduation present from my sister Kristy), and turned to page 272, only to realize I lacked the required ingredient. In my desperation I just started grabbing things from the pantry and the unholy concoction that emerged may be the best no-bake recipe I've ever had. Wow.

Mix:
1 c. sugar, 1/3 c butter, 1/2 c. evaporated milk, 1/2 tsp. vanilla, and 1/4 cup cocoa in a pot. Melt and mix together. Let boil for 1-2 minutes.
Remove from heat and add 1-1/4 cup mini marshmallows and 3 tbsp. peanut butter. Mix well, allowing the marshmallows to melt.
Add 1-1/4 cup oatmeal and 1 more cup of mini marshmallows. Mix until equally blended and drop by spoonfuls on waxed paper or a greased cookie sheet. Allow to cool.

Move over, Curtis's "Dinosaur Food" recipe and Mom's "Chocolate Oatmeal Stuff"- we've got a new most addictive substance ever!

Rice Krispies Drumsticks

These drumsticks are a fun twist on the traditional rice krispy treat.

4 tbsp. powdered sugar
Frosted flakes

1. In a large microwave safe bowl, melt margerine and marshmallows on High for 2 minutes stirring after 1 minute. Stir until smooth.

2. Add puffed rice cereal until well coated. When slightly cooled, shape cereal mixture into drumstick shapes using buttered hands. Place on waxed paper or a surface coated with cooking spray and cool.

3. Mix peanut butter with sugar. Spread over top of each drumstick. Crush frosted flakes with rolling pin. Dip drumsticks in crushed frosted flakes.
