Peggy’s No-Bake Chocolate Cookies
Hey there! It’s Hattie again! These are Peggy’s go-to cookies when she needs to whip up something sweet in a hurry.
She brought a batch to one of our murder club meetings and announced, “Sugar, these are so easy even my ex-husband could make them, and that man set the kitchen on fire trying to make ice cubes!”
No baking required means no chance of burning down the cabin while investigating murder cases!
Happy no-baking and Merry Christmas! Sweet as Southern hospitality!
