Add chocolate: Either add chocolate chips, cocoa powder, or nutella to create a peanut butter and chocolate cookie. Cocoa powder gets added in with the butter, sugar, and milk at the beginning. Chocolate chips or nutella can be added in with the oats at the end. Add color: To give these tan cookies a pop of color either add sprinkles at the end, or consider mixing in small candies like M&Ms or Reese’s Pieces. Add a pinch of salt: The salt will bring out the flavors and balance the sweetness. But remember just a pinch. You want them to be sweet, not too salty. Keep in mind the peanut butter and butter (unsalted or salted) you are using and adjust your salt accordingly. Texture: Use crunchy peanut butter for a great crunchy addition to the texture. Also, try raisins for a chewy bite of sweetness.

No Bake cookies are great to make and take with you on a picnic because they store well at room temperature. They will remain fresh for 3-4 days. They are also fantastic cold, so try keeping them in the refrigerator for up to a week, or the freezer for 2 months.
