Chocolate Peanut Butter No-Bake Cookies

I LOVE to bake, but since it's been so hot lately, I decided to look up a no-bake cookie recipe so I didn't need to turn on the oven.

The first recipe that popped up in my search was a recipe for Chocolate Peanut Butter No-Bake Cookies from the Food Network.

The recipe was quick and easy, and the end result was yummy, chocolatey cookies. 

Happy no-baking!
