Something yummy for Friday: Chocolate blobs

AKA chocolate peanut butter no bakes.  Here's the original, except my mom always used peanut butter instead of corn syrup.

This is my healthier version.  Enjoy!!!
 Chocolate Blobs
1/4 cup cocoa powder
1/2 cup butter
Melt the butter in a saucepan, stir in the cocoa until smooth.
Add 1 cup honey and 1/2 cup milk and bring to a boil, for one minute.  Remove from heat and add 1 tsp vanilla and 1/2 cup nut butter.  Stir well.  Now add 3 cups of whole oats, + raisins, nuts, dried cherries, seeds, (some people like coconut), whatever you want to add.  Drop by spoonfuls on a cookie sheet and pop into the freezer.

They are super good on hot days, right out of the freezer.  Because of the honey, they will get melty if you leave them around at room temperature.  


These were the first "cookies" I ever made as a little girl - fond memories of licking the spoon!  (They are really candy.)
