- 2 cups sugar
- ½ cup milk, any type
- 11 tablespoons salted butter
- ¼ cup cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 3 cups quick oats
- 1-½ cups raisins
How To Make The Cookies
First combine the sugar, milk, butter and cocoa powder in a large pot. Melt the ingredients over medium-high heat. Bring the mixture to a boil and boil for 1 minute. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
Next, stir in the oats and raisins and mix it thoroughly.
Using a medium scoop, scoop the cookies onto wax paper and flatten just a touch.
Let the cookies set for about an hour before storing in an airtight container between layers of wax paper.
Tip to make this no bake cookie perfectly.
Boil for only one minute, no more or no less. Start timing when bubbles are starting to form in the middle of the pot. This is important to get the perfect consistency. If you boil to long, the mix will be crumbly. If you don't boil it long enough, the mixture won't set up completely.

I think it is a misprint on the salt, it says 11 teaspoons of salt. I’m sure it should be 1 teaspoon. Thanks and have a blessed day 🙂

Thank you! I checked the recipe and it's correct. It calls for 11 tablespoons of salted butter. There's no extra salt in the recipe.
