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

  1. Take your grinder and ground your oats to bits. I used rolled oats. Put the amount in accordance to your serving size.
  2. 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.
  3. Melt 2 tablespoons peanut butter in the microwave for about 30 seconds to 45 seconds at P100. Keep checking to make sure.  
  4. 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.
  5. 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.
  6. Put the tray in the refrigerator for a bit. At least 20 minutes.
  7. Melt some chocolate with some butter in the microwave or use a double boiler.
  8. Take your cookies out of the refrigerator and dip half of the cookie into the melted chocolate.
  9. 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...

The Leaving vs The Left Behind

  I still remember,  I was standing near the entrance looking out at the garden. I was at my best friend’s home and she had gone to get her ever famous chips chilly for me. I was to leave for Bangalore again, in a couple of days. While I waited, I looked out at the garden and this thought came into my head. “Who is it harder for? The one leaving or the ones left behind?” Is it going to be harder for me in a new place readjusting and exploring, or my best friend here, who will me miss me? Is it harder for a person to settle in a completely new place with a completely new lifestyle and have to find new people or for a person to see the same old places, the same old alleys and reminiscent the good times they had with their friend who are not around at the moment? It was a random thought that filled my mind a couple of minutes and then I got over it. Some time after resettling here in Bangalore, my best friend sent me a reel. The reel was about 2 close friends who used to lived ...

Most Asked Question

  Coming back home after one year has been a rollercoaster of emotions for me the past month. Getting to see everyone again, embracing family and friends, working on an office desk again, walking through same old alleys and of course, devouring delicious food that I so dearly missed. I am actually almost through the food list that I have been saving. But the people have been asking me the same question a lot: do you like it here in Nepal or in Bangalore? And the answer has always been the same for me: I like it wherever I am. Kathmandu is home, it is warm, and it is where family is. Bangalore is a different vibe and freedom and excitement. Kathmandu is a different fun and Bangalore is different fun, which is why I live in the moment and enjoy where I am. My mother always tells me: “ La wani tha nya wani ma” in Nepal Bhasa meaning “ the fish must go where the water goes”. The meaning while very basic is also very deep. If the fish does not flow with the water, it cannot survive. I...
