Cookies and cream lumps of coal

Cookies & cream "lumps of coal" from @bijouxandbits

Ready for a super easy, no-bake dessert perfect for all those not-so-naughty people in your life? These cookies and cream lumps of coal are your answer. They take just three ingredients, about 20 minutes of time, and the will power not to eat them all before you serve them.

I was inspired by these cookies and cream bars that look so rad in bar form. Shaping them into lumps of coal just seemed like the perfect mashup for the holidays.

Texture-wise, these are super chewy, sort of like softer Rice Krispy treats. If anyone is afraid to try one, just give them that comparison and they’ll chill out. I mean, they are brown mystery lumps, so I get it. I also didn’t expect to ever use the term “mystery lumps.”

      Thanks!! They’re one of those snacks that only look right in context. Otherwise they’re just brown blobs. 😉

      / Even though it isn't finished, it's looking great! We're casually looking into countertops for an upcoming kitchen remodel (probably at least 18 months out). We hadn't considered plywood

      Oh Candid, you are so silly and childish, very much like Scott. You clearly haven't even read the post before you commented did you as the answer is in the post. You aren't one of those redneck trolls who comments before actually reading the post are you?

    How long does this last? We want to make and ship to a friend.

      Good question! I think you’d be safe if it was in transit for less than four days or so. Ideally less, but it would likely be fine. It’s pretty shelf-stable. Let me know how they like them!
