We are in the holiday spirit here at the Romance Writers Weekly Blog Hop! This week, J.J. Devine asks: What is your favorite holiday cookie recipe? If you joined me from Jenna Da Sie http://jennadasie.com, welcome! I’ll say it write off. I’m not much of a baker. If any of my family are reading this, they are now rolling on the floor laughing at this understatement. That’s not to say I never bake. I make chocolate chip cookies and banana bread and zucchini muffins. But when I do, it usually means the planets have aligned in a very rare sighting! The only time I always make treats is at Christmas, and I have two all-time favourites. Today I’m going to share Chocolate Haystacks (otherwise known as Oat Delights). The irony is they are a non-bake cookie—but that’s party why I like them! 2 cups sugar 6 tbsp. cocoa ½ cup butter ½ cup milk ½ teaspoon vanilla 1 cup shredded coconut 3 cups minute or quick oats Combine sugar, cocoa, butter and milk in a large saucepan. Bring to a boil. Add vanilla and stir. Remove from heat and add coconut and oats. Drop by teaspoonfuls onto wax paper. Chill. Make about 4 dozen. I usually double the recipe, as they freeze well. I hope you've discovered a new to you recipe, and be sure to continue collecting your holiday baking recipes with J.J. Devine! Thanks for stopping by!
