Happy Valentine's Day Everyone! If you're looking for a little treat to make check out this super easy chocolaty goodness cookie and no baking required!
We had a little bit of peanut butter left just screaming at me to make a cookie out of it! So browsing Pinterest I found this Peanut Butter Cup no bake recipe. I didn't have all the ingredients and it had way too much sugar for my snacking pleasure. So I modified it these awesome cookies that were so quick to make. Note this is not a healthy treat...but hey it's Valentine's Day and we can splurge! Yummy!
