What on God's good earth are no-bake cookies?

Is that just cookie dough? I'm confused.

How can a cookie be a cookie when there's nothing to cook?

3. Cookies that don't need time in the oven

Usually just a little set up time in the fridge.

They're RAW!!

4. They set up like fudge, at least that's how mine work.

From a purely technical standpoint, they're actually a candy.

5. Just to answer the question

Edited on Thu Dec-18-08 04:19 PM by RandomThoughts

The word cook, as in to heat on stove, is only one of the components of the meaning.
It also includes the mixing and measuring of componets.
That is why a person that works in a restraunt is called a cook, and not called an oven.
If they required heating to be called cookies, they would be called ovenies.

I hope this clears this up.

Edit: they could be called Bake'es also :)

6. Not all cookies are baked.

Some are fried. Some are boiled.

9. Campfire Brownies... crushed vanilla wafers, can of Eagle Brand Milk,

chocolate chips, nuts, and maybe some peanut butter.

dump everything in the big ziplock bag and knead it all together. Shape into a roll and let it sit.

Way back when we crushed the vanilla wafers in the plastic sack they came in, then opened one end of it and poured in the other stuff.
