I think we’ve met the sock of **The Second Stone.** Same M.O. Inappropriate levels of outrage given the context.

Don’t carry your shit from one thread to another, you’ll get it all over everything. And don’t accuse another poster of sock puppetry, even in the Pit. I think the OP is hilarious, and yes, I thought it was someone parodying me. Cuz’ everything is about me.

Clearly the OP has never made cookies, because toll house cookies are almost as good unbaked as they are baked.

Well, you do have a special way of going nuclear.

Well, I do love to get baked and eat a bunch of no-bake cookies. That could be mistaken for hippie behavior.

I have a delicious recipe for no-bake cookies, if anybody wants it. The ingredients are indeed peanut butter and oats - plus sugar, cocoa, vanilla, salt and maybe one or two other ingredients I’m forgetting. They are sublime.

I’ve never heard of a no-bake cookie. How do they work? They sound sad. The best part of cookies is eating them when they’re warm and fresh.

no-bakes are awesome. Yes they’re a cookie. No, they aren’t cooked. I don’t care. I want one.

Deep fried cookies are properly no-bake, verdad?

Adding shredded coconut (1/2 to 1 cup, personal preference) makes these awesome!

Driveby. Register with a one-off name, post a screed, disappear.

How utterly invaluable for the community.

According to the Cookie Monster himself, cookie dough is dessert sushi.

(Although it should be dessert sashimi, since [as far as I know] sushi is all about the rice.)

Huh. I’ve been eating no-bake cookies since my mom made them in what, the 90’s? I guess she missed the notice that it was gluten/hippie/vegan thing.
