No Bake Peanut Butter and Oatmeal Cookies

Yes, you read that right; if you feel lazy to do all the extra work but still want to munch on cookies, these are the ones for you. Here is a cookie recipe that can be made with only a few ingredients and doesn’t require much to do either. You get the best of both worlds.

Here is what you will need

Peanut butter

Oats

Milk

Honey/ sugar water

Chocolate

Butter

Butter paper/ parchment paper

It will take anywhere from 10 to 15 minutes for preparation and even less to eat.

Instructions

Take your grinder and ground your oats to bits. I used rolled oats. Put the amount in accordance to your serving size.
If you have honey, you can use honey. If you don’t have honey, sugar water or chasni will work just as fine. I used sugar water. Over medium heat you need to boil some water with about 5 teaspoons of sugar until it completely dissolves and the color is somewhat brownish.
Melt 2 tablespoons peanut butter in the microwave for about 30 seconds to 45 seconds at P100. Keep checking to make sure.
In a large bowl mix in the melted peanut butter with your sugar water and rolled oats. It will for a dough. Put in dash of milk.
Then, lay your butter paper over a tray. Form little balls of equal size of the dough. With 2 forks mash the ball from the top to form a cookie shape and a little design.
Put the tray in the refrigerator for a bit. At least 20 minutes.
Melt some chocolate with some butter in the microwave or use a double boiler.
Take your cookies out of the refrigerator and dip half of the cookie into the melted chocolate.
Put the tray in the freezer for at least 10 mins after you’re done dipping with all cookies.

These sort of cookies might not be as good as the oven ones but they are easy to make and good enough to munch on.

Rajamati

I think we’ve all heard the song of Rajamati growing up. It is so popular that many people in Nepal claim this is the only Newari song that they have heard. The song was written some 200 years back. The first few lines go like this, which I’m sure you must have heard of, unless you’ve been living under a rock: Rājamati kumati, jike wasā pirati Hāya bābā Rājamati-chā Rājamati mabila dhāsā Kāshi wane tela bubā Hayā biu Rājamati-chā. San dhāsā kuli kuli, mikhā dhāsā bālā bālā Sakumi yā mhyāy machā lā Khwā dhāsā tuyu khwā, khwālay niga tee du Tāhā Nani yā Rājamati-chā. It is said to be written by or rather from the perspective of a man who was infatuated and in awe of the beauty of Rajamati. He describes with great admiration: her hair, her eyes, her complexion and the little moles on her face. However it is unknown who the writer of this beautiful song is. The song rushed into popularity after it was played in England in 1850 when Prime Minister Jung Bahadur Rana vi...

Everyday Phases by my Mother part 2

I have been meaning to write this part 2, especially after Every Day Phrases by my Mother , the first part was liked by so many and also because, well, the phrases and the dialogues never end with my mother. I did tease her about writing a book or making a scrapbook about all her phrases, but we never got around to it. So here we are, after almost 4 years, apologies if the Nepal bhasa wordings are incorrect somewhere Ne tha ne masau Bhwauthau pwa This is basically saying, not being able to take advantage of the situation or not doing what you are supposed to do at the event. If you get invited somewhere that has food, you should eat there. Neu twanyu tha yu yethe, jui chwanyu kata pinyu yethe I have heard this one many times. In the society that we live in, impression and your social image matters a lot, especially when it comes to family prestige. So it does not matter what you do at home but once you step outside, there is this social obligation of dressing appropriately, behav...

The Oldest Kumari

Dhana Kumari Bajracharya resides amidst the hustle and bustle in Gabahal, Patan. She is a 70 year old woman, who you would think is much younger at age, if you look at her. Age seems to have done justice to this beautiful woman. What makes this wise old woman different than other wise old women in Patan? She is the oldest Kumari of Patan. Kumari, the living goddess is a tradition or a practice that has been around for many years and that has been celebrated widely in the Kathmandu Valley. The very first Kumari goes back to 17 th Century. The process to choose the Kumari is divine and a girl must go through several tests to get chosen as the Kumari. Dhana Kumari Bajracharya is the longest serving Kumari of Patan having been established as the Kumari from 2010 B.S to 2042 B.S. A whooping 32 years. Perhaps her case is the most rare that we might come across. A girl serves as a Kumari until she reaches puberty, or she has her first menstruation. After that, it is believed that th...
