Browned Butter No Bake Cookies

These browned butter no bake cookies are insanely delicious! They are soft and chewy with rich flavors from browned butter, cinnamon and optional pecans.

When I set out to make a recipe I go into the process with an expectation of creating something tasty and I work my magic to make it deliver on that objective. However, sometimes a recipe just comes together and blows my own socks off at how yummy it turns out, these cookies are that kind of recipe. Easy to make and magic on their own.

No bakes are so easy to make and I love them! I love the traditional peanut butter and chocolate variation! This version holds it’s own against even the original, which is saying something! HERE is my original extra chewy no bake cookie recipe.
