Father’s Day is THE day set aside once a year to really honor your dear old dad! Last year my lovely daughter gave me the surprise of a lifetime by making me a batch of these yummy oatmeal cookies. They were so good that I have been requesting them throughout the year. There are two great benefits of this oatmeal cookie recipe. First off, they are only 92 calories per cookie. Secondly, they are no-bake! Terribly easy to make and extremely tasty, I cannot recommend these cookies enough. Make a batch and surprise your dad as he wakes up on Sunday. Have a cold glass of milk ready and watch the smile grow from ear to ear. Happy Father’s Day to all the dads worldwide!  

1 cup heavy whipping cream

8 ounces (1 1/2 cups) milk chocolate morsels

1/2 cup peanut butter (smooth or crunchy)

3 cups quick-cooking oats 

1. In a saucepan over medium heat, heat the cream to just before boiling.

2. Remove from heat; stir in the chocolate morsels and peanut butter until the mixture is smooth.

3. Fold in the oats. Drop by the spoonful onto wax paper- or parchment-lined baking sheets.

4. Freeze until set, about 1 hour.

Transfer cookies to a resealable plastic bag for storage in the freezer or refrigerator.
