These coffee-infused no-bake cookies are rich and decadent, and ready in less than twenty minutes flat.

Ingredients: 
2 cups turbinado sugar
1/2 cup milk
5 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa
4 tablespoons butter
1/2 cup peanut butter
2 1/2 cups rolled oats
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 package Starbucks Columbia VIA

Instructions:

Pour sugar, milk, cocoa and butter in a medium, heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium-high heat. Bring to a rolling boil for 1.5 minutes, stirring often.
Remove from heat and quickly mix in the rest of the ingredients.
Drop spoonfuls on wax paper or parchment paper. Yields 24-30 cookies.

I use to make a chocolate cookie almost Identical to these
My grandma and I used to get in to these heated arguments about no bake cookies... She said she was not going to eat a raw cookie... So I called them candy instead- She would eat them when they where called candy not cookies!
Thanks for sharing the recipe!

That's funny! Cookies, candies, whatever you call them, they're delicious. No-bake "cookies" were the only cookies my mom would let us make when we were kids, because they're so easy!

These cookies are really good! Had to substitute brown sugar and Mexican instant coffee because it's Sunday morning- still good cookies! Thanks for sharing your recipe.

Thanks for posting this.
I know that these are no bake cookies but I just tried this using oats that I toasted in the oven first and I added some unsweetened coconut chips.
Mmmmmmm....*drools into keyboard"
