Chocolate peanut butter satisfaction in a hurry with some heathy oatmeal thrown in. These are easy to whip up from ingredients on hand, but there are some tricks to getting it right. The big problem with these cookies can be that they do not set up well. Although the recipe does not specify I find it works best with quick oats and regular (not natural) peanut butter. You can also throw in a little extra cocoa powder and some coconut and that helps them set up too. It is also important not to overcook the boiled chocolate mixture or the sugar will turn unpleasantly grainy. If they are soft, I refrigerate them and store them in the refrigerator as well. They make a fun Easter cookie as you can see in the second photo making them into little bird nests and adding tiny jelly beans.

I grew up in New England, but this was my first lobster roll. I don’t like mayonnaise, and so was happily surprised that the main binding ingredient was yogurt. They have you strain your yogurt if you don’t have Greek yogurt, but that doesn’t work so well if your yogurt is thicken with gelatin or some other agent. There was also mayonnaise, lemon juice, celery and scallion. I liked that the rolls were grilled. I used large sections of Cuban bread instead of the hotdog rolls and grilled them on the George Foreman. One other reviewer on the website also substituted precooked langostinos for the lobster as I did. A very fresh tasting sandwich!
