SKINNY NO-BAKE COOKIES

These awesome 'lower in fat' no-bake cookies comes from one of my most favorite food blogs at http://www.skinnytaste.com/no-bake cookies and the beauty of this recipe is that they weigh in at only 1 point per cookie. Oh Yeah....bring um on down the line!
2/3 cup sugar
1/2 cup cocoa
2 tablespoons Brummel & Brown Yogurt spread
1/2 cup fat-free milk
2 1/2 cups quick oats
3/4 cup Better-n-Peanut Butter
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
powdered sugar, cocoa powder
 Combine first 4 ingredients and boil in a small pan for 2 minutes. Remove from heat and mix in oatmeal, peanut butter and vanilla. Drop by tablespoons onto wax paper or roll into balls with slightly moist hands and refrigerate overnight. The next day you can roll them in powdered sugar or cocoa if desired. Keep refrigerated if storing for several days.
20 servings at 2 cookies each for only 2 points +

  2. How do you get one point per cookie? The original site says 3 points plus per cookie.

  3. Never heard of the peanut butter that you have on here. Is there something more nationally known that can be used?

  5. Thank You, for this wonderful Recipe. I just made these and OMGosh, they were just perfect for that chocolate craving. I did modify these a little, I used 1 Tablespoon of real butter instead of the Brummel and Brown yogurt and I also only put 1/2 Cup Peanut Butter in them. They turned out wonderful and delicious and a nice treat. I made 23 cookies I did the Calorie count on them and it was 47 calories for 1 cookie.
