These are good..........
No-bake Oatmeal cookies
1 stick butter or margarine 1/2 cup
2 cups sugar
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup chocolate milk mix (like Nestle's Quick)
1/2 cup peanut butter
1 teaspoon vanilla
3 cups rolled oats
Mix together butter or margarine, sugar, milk, and chocolate milk mix in a saucepan and heat until boiling. Boil for one minute. Remove from heat. Add peanut butter, vanilla, and oats. Mix well and drop by tablespoons onto waxed paper or foil to cool.
Makes 12 - 18
Use more than 1 tablespoon of batter if you want bigger cookies. Batter will look a little runny but firms up as it cools. You can also add chopped peanuts, if you like.

chocolate peanut toffee
4 sticks (1 pound) unsalted butter, cut into pieces
2 cups sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
4 cups whole cocktail peanuts plus 1 cup chopped (1 pound 10 ounces)
7 to 8 ounces 70%-cacao bittersweet chocolate, finely chopped
Equipment: a 15- by 10- by 1-inch baking pan; a candy thermometer; a metal offset spatula
Preparation
Butter baking pan and put on a heatproof surface.
Bring butter, sugar, and salt to a boil in a 4- to 5-quart heavy pot over medium-high heat, whisking until smooth, then boil, stirring occasionally, until mixture is deep golden and registers 300°F (hard-crack stage; see Kitchen Notebook, page 240) on thermometer, 15 to 20 minutes.
Immediately stir in whole peanuts, then carefully pour hot toffee into center of baking pan. Spread with spatula, smoothing top, and let stand 1 minute, then immediately sprinkle chocolate on top. Let stand until chocolate is melted, 4 to 5 minutes, then spread over toffee with cleaned spatula. Sprinkle evenly with chopped peanuts, then freeze until chocolate is firm, about 30 minutes. Break into pieces.
Cooks' note: Toffee keeps, layered between sheets of parchment paper, in an airtight container at cool room temperature 2 weeks.

chocolate sambuca crinkle cookies
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
12 ounces fine-quality bittersweet chocolate (not unsweetened), chopped
1/2 stick unsalted butter
2 large eggs
1/2 cup walnuts, coarsely chopped
1/2 cup Sambuca or other anise-flavored liqueur
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 cup confectioners sugar
Preparation
Sift together flour, baking powder, and salt. Melt chocolate with butter in a metal bowl set over a saucepan of simmering water, stirring until smooth. Lightly whisk together eggs, walnuts, Sambuca, and granulated sugar in another bowl. Stir in flour mixture and chocolate (dough will be thin). Chill, covered, until firm, about 2 hours.
Preheat oven to 350°F.
Sift confectioners sugar onto a plate. Roll heaping tablespoons of dough into balls and roll balls, as formed, in confectioners sugar to generously coat. Arrange balls 2 inches apart on 2 lightly buttered baking sheets and bake in upper and lower thirds of oven, switching position of sheets halfway through baking, until puffed and cracked but centers are still a bit soft, 10 to 12 minutes total. Transfer to racks to cool.
