Peanut Butter, Coconut and Chocolate NO BAKE Cookies. Why make these peanut butter coconut cookies? These no-bake cookies take very little time to prepare. All you do is melt the peanut butter and chocolate chips together and then mix in the remaining ingredients to combine, scoop onto a baking sheet, shape it into a regular cookie shape (e.g. like a flat disc) or balls or whatever you really want. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Remove from heat; stir in peanut butter and vanilla until blended.
Stir sugar, cocoa powder, milk, and margarine together in a saucepan over medium heat until the mixture is smooth.
Thaw overnight in the refrigerator before serving.
Butter: Coconut oil works instead of butter because like butter, it solidifies when cold.

Peanut Butter: (updated note) This recipe works best if using a non-natural style peanut butter like Jif or Skippy. For equally portioned cookies, I use a Medium Cookie Scoop and scoop rounds of this chocolate peanut butter no-bake cookie batter onto a parchment-lined Half Sheet Pan. If your no-bake oatmeal cookies look more like amoebas than circles, tap the sides with a spatula while the mixture is still warm. These no-bake cookies are sweet and chewy and made without peanut butter.

They taste like an oatmeal cookie and coconut macaroon combined into one delicious treat. These are the best no bake cookies that I have ever made; they came out perfect and I did not make any changes to the recipe! If you want to make them without peanut butter, you can also substitute almond butter, cashew butter, sunflower butter, or even coconut butter. And for sweetener, you can use pretty much anything - brown sugar, unrefined sugar, pure maple syrup, honey, agave, xylitol (for sugar free no bakes), etc. Use a liquid sweetener for no bake cookies.
