Madame Samm's No Bake Chewies

Madame Samm's No Bake Chewies

1 cup of raw large flake oatmeal..( not instant)

3/4 cup of peanut butter

1/2 cup of honey, ( a good kind)

1 cup of chocolate chips or 1 cup of dark raisins

1/2 cup of toasted coconut ( I put it in a dry pan on med heat and just

brown it, takes 2 min)

In a small pot, add peanut butter and honey and stir until well blended and it thins out like a warmed honey... ( 3 minutes tops).  

Now pour this sweet mixture onto oatmeal and coconut, raisins or chocolate chips. Form into balls.... BE sure to run your hands under cold water and shape balls. This way the mixture will not stick to your hands.  Keep repeating that... Refrigerate

HINT from Madame Samm:

"Refrigerate and take as needed...I would not eat these near bedtime...they will keep you up for hours...that is what happened to me the other day!"
