The Lush Chef

Libations used: 2 Tbs Frangelico
Libations left over: None, but add a shot to your coffee when you're done whipping up these cookies...
I think the last time I had no-bake cookies was in college.  The residence I lived in had a fancy chef, but one of my favorite things he made were just simple no-bake cookies.  Well, these aren't quite the same — they're a boozed-up adult version with Frangelico.  And there's the added bonus of peanut butter and Nutella.  You really can't go wrong with pairing Frangelico and Nutella, like I did with these cupcakes that I made back in the spring.  Heaven!   Anyway, if you're looking for a quick and easy dessert to make for Valentines' Day, try this cookie recipe from TheKitchn.  They're sure to impress and satisfy your lover, your friends and your family.  Just don't try to lick the bowl clean, ok?
