No-Bake Blondie Cookies
We love no-bake cookies around here. We make them so often that we have the recipe memorized. I remember my oldest sister making some yummy Blondie No Bake Cookies when I was a little girl.
She says it was an accident, but all I remember is that I loved them. I decided to try and recreate them myself….don’t ask me why I waited so long. They turned out delicious, and that’s how this Blondie No Bake Cookies recipe was born.
Because you aren’t using cocoa, you have to do a couple of things differently with the recipe. You need to mix a little flour in with the sugar, and then up the amount of oats. Other than that, ingredients are pretty much the same. I just suggest going a little heavy on the peanut butter. YUM!

I love eating these in a bowl with a spoon while they are still warm. The texture is so fabulous. I also love them when they are completely cooled and set up. These take a little longer to set up, but once they do, the outside is a little hardened, and the center is still soft. PERFECTION!!!
How to Make Blondie No-Bake Cookies
- Line a large cookie sheet with wax paper or parchment paper.
- Next, add sugar and flour together in a medium-sized saucepan. Stir until well combined.
- Add butter and milk and turn the burner on to medium-high heat. Stir fairly constantly as the butter melts, bring to a full boil, and allow to boil for 2 minutes. (Keep stirring while boiling.)
- Remove from heat and add peanut butter and vanilla. Stir until combined, and then add quick oats and stir until completely combined.
- Next, using a cookie scoop or by the tablespoonful, drop cookies onto the prepared cookie sheet with wax paper or parchment paper to cool.
- Let cool and enjoy.
Tips for Making Blondie No-Bake Cookies
- I used quick oats, but old-fashioned would work great, too; the cookies will just turn out a little flatter. The weird/cool thing about using the quick oats is that the peanut butter mixture is still so hot when you mix them in that it cooks them a little bit and gives them a unique (and addictive) texture.
- I also used creamy peanut butter because it is what I keep on hand. I am sure crunchy would be fabulous, especially if you like nuts in your cookies.
- I prefer to use a lined cookie sheet with wax paper to drop the cookies on so I can move them if I need to. However, you can put wax paper on the countertop to put the cookies on while they are cooling.

These look amazing! I bet they just melt in your mouth.
4 1/2 cups of oats are too much. Only 3 cups needed!
