Notes
Lining the cookie sheet: My cookies didn't stick to the baking sheet but you can line it with parchment paper or wax paper if you want.
Keep the heat low: You only need to melt the butter in the pot before adding the remaining ingredients so use a low to medium heat only. There's no actual cooking required.
Keep them fresh: Whether you're storing them in the refrigerator or freezer, keep the no bake cookies in an airtight container so they stay crisp and fresh.
