who doesn't love a no-bake cookie?

My aunt posted this recipe on Facebook the other day and I gave it a try. I mean who doesn't love a no bake cookie? Any cookie that resembles a cow pie is a winner in my book. Since I'm not a huge fan of the peanut butter I was glad to see a different recipe than the more traditional no-bake. They were quite delicious and I'm pretty sure I consumed the whole batch pretty much by myself.

I used butterscotch pudding and added chocolate chips. However, I should have let them cool a bit more before adding them as the chips melted quite a bit.

Cool 15 minutes. Drop by spoons onto waxed paper. Makes 4 dozen After cooling, before you spoon onto the waxed paper you can add 1 cup of any or all of the following: butterscotch chips, nuts (any kind) raisins, coconut or chocolate chips. You can change the flavor of these cookies by changing the flavor of the instant pudding.
