How to Make (Irresistible) Fudge No-Bake Cookies Adapted from the NOLS Cookery
It’s the beginning of the holiday season, and easy, chocolatey Fudge No-Bake Cookies may be just the thing to indulge your wish for, well, something easy and chocolatey. Sure, you can eat them all yourself (you probably won’t be sharing them at a holiday party this year), but wrapping up some for friends and neighbors and delivering them to doorsteps is certain to be appreciated too. Last of all, you can practice making these fudgy bites now so they’re committed to memory the next time you go camping and hanker for a sweet snack.
