3-Ingredient Crack Cookies
We call these crack cookies because they're so addicting, you won't be able to stop eating them! If you need a last minute no bake cookie recipe, try these 3-Ingredient Crack Cookies. They really couldn't be easier to make. Simply spread store bought cookies with caramel and dip in melted chocolate! If you prefer, you can use peanut butter instead of caramel. Either way, these chocolate covered no bake cookies are delicious.
