Yum! We love these. I made them when I was growing up, and now my daughter makes them for us. I used to call them cow-pies since we were dairy farmers.

Have you ever tried them in a casserole dish? I did this last time I made them and it’s way easier and just as yummy! Just cut them out like you would a brownie.

Tried these tonight. Very quick and easy recipe! They were a little on the dry side but they tasted amazing! Everybody in my household gives the thumbs up. And I very much prefer this to the old school recipe I have that you have to commit half a day to complete lol. Thanks for sharing!

Total bust for me. It seemed like that last zap in the microwave was too long…. maybe burned the cocoa a bit? I’m not sure. But these were completely dry and falling apart. 🙁

Super easy microwaveable recipe. I made mine large so it made about 20 cookies. But, regular size cookies would make about 3 dozen.

Great ingredients just like on the stovetop, except I used
3 cups of oats.
In Mom’s old microwave it could have used a minute more to cook
I’m thinking.
Thanks for sharing!-
