Hi Bold Bakers!
You know what’s better than a chocolate chip cookie? A chocolate chip cookie that takes 10 minutes to make, requires no baking and is made with a few wholesome ingredients. My Chocolate Chip No Bake Cookies are practically a miracle — even I can’t believe how good they are!
Making No Bake Chocolate Chip Cookies
These no bake cookies are made of butter, brown sugar, a splash of milk, oat flour and chocolate chips. All of the ingredients in these chocolate chip cookies are safe to eat raw. Since eggs and flour are omitted, no heat treatment is required for this recipe. Plus, the mix of brown sugar, butter and milk are binding enough to hold this cookie together well. Add that to the fact that there is no oven needed, and it’s win, win, win.
How Do You Make Oat Flour?
Oat flour is what makes this no-bake cookie recipe both gluten-free and flourless. Oat flour is a naturally tasty and healthy flour alternative and it is so easy to make. All I do is grind up my rolled oats in my blender or food processor. You have oat flour once the oats have been ground into a fine powder. Oat flour will keep well for ages if stored in an airtight container and is a great addition to all kinds of baked goods.
What Can I Add to These Cookies?
I love the simplicity of these No Bake Chocolate Chip Cookies and I can definitely see adding raisins, walnuts or pecans to them. The beauty of this one-bowl-wonder is you can really make it your own. Whatever you like in your cookies, I say add it in!

Recipe Notes
Wow! This recipe is the best???? My son & I couldn’t stop eating these cookies. Thanks for such an awesome recipe.
I tried making these! First time eating them out from the oven they were way too sweet. The next day I pan fried them over the stove and they turned out way better! Crispy on the outside and chewy in the middle 🙂
I just made these cookies a minute ago. They’re kinda sweet. I would cut down the sugar next time I make them, but I love using oat flour because it’s healthier.
Thank you Gemma!

Hi Gemma,
I tried these cookies and they were AMAZING! I’d just like to cut down on the calories so could I use honey in these like the peanut butter ones?
