Goldie's No Bake Cookies

Summary

A classic no-bake chocolate-oatmeal cookie ("preacher cookie" style) attributed to "Goldie," with a family-history note that "mom" never used the chopped nuts — the second, unrelated recipe on a page shared with "Chinese Noodle No-Bake Cookies" (see COMBO note).

Key contents

Ingredients: - 2 cups sugar - 1 stick butter - 1/2 cup milk - 1/2 cup cocoa - 1 cup chopped nuts (card note: "mom never used" — indicating whoever kept this card habitually omitted the nuts)

Method: - Bring sugar, butter, milk, and cocoa together on medium heat to a rolling boil, stirring constantly. - Remove from stove; add 1 tsp. vanilla and 3–4 cups uncooked oatmeal. - Mix, then drop by spoonfuls onto wax paper to cool.

Attribution: Recipe is titled "Goldie's No Bake Cookies," naming Goldie as the source.

Physical artifact: Handwritten in red ink on the same lined notebook page as "Chinese Noodle No-Bake Cookies" (different recipe, different ink color, written below it); page has water/stain spotting across the bottom.

COMBO NOTE

This page also holds "Chinese Noodle No-Bake Cookies (Chocolate Haystacks)," a separate and unrelated recipe written above this one in blue/black ink. The two recipes are filed as two separate documents — see chocolate-haystack-cookies.pdf — cross-referenced here because they share one physical page/scan.
