Aside from the individual preferences of 6 family members, we have the issue of food allergies which further narrows the list. Over the years we've managed pretty well on the whole, but the dessert category is a little tricky. Egg substitutes, for example, are not always reliable and the results can vary from day to day.
Rice Krispie treats are quick and easy; so is Wacky Cake. I've grown tired of both. Then I remembered the No-Bake Cookies from my childhood. With a little substituting they've become a treat the whole family can enjoy (they're one of Stephen's favorites).
No-Make Cookies
1/2 c. sugar
1/4 c. coconut oil
2 T. unsweetened cocoa powder
1/4 c. rice milk
1/4 c. sunflower butter
1 1/2 c. quick-cooking oats
1/2 t. vanilla
Combine sugar, oil, cocoa and milk in a medium saucepan.
Bring to a boil and stir for 30 seconds.
Remove from heat and stir in sunbutter, oats and vanilla.
Scoop onto waxed-paper and allow to cool.
Yield: 2 dozen
