    My DH is a member of our Fire Dept, this weekend they are having a staged emergency. A bus disaster is what they are working on, they will be having the other fire depts, ambulances & rescue workers from the other towns be a part of this...I wanted to see if anyone has any really really good bar or cookie recipes. The bars & cookies will be easiet for the guys & gals to grab...(after the tranning of course) I am looking anything that is fantastic, that is maybe a little more different than chocolate chip cookies & brownies. I appreciate all your help!

    This is a great recipe for brownies! Everyone was talking about these for days! You can make these in a mini muffin pan using one Rolo and bake for 10 mins.

    Peanut Butter No-Bake Cookie Recipe
    This is a chewy, peanut butter-rich cookie made with oats. Both kids and adults will like this.
    Again, this is a stovetop recipe. From ingredients to cookies on the sheet took us about ten minutes.
    Ingredients
    2 cups brown sugar
    1/2 cup evaporated milk
    1/2 cup butter
    1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
    1 cups peanut butter
    3 cups quick rolled oats
    Directions
    1. Add the brown sugar, evaporated milk, and butter to a heavy saucepan. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring continually, until the mixture comes to boil. Cook for one minute longer.
    2. Remove from heat, stir in peanut butter, quick oats, and vanilla. Stir until the mixture begins to cool.
    3. Drop the cookies by the spoonful onto a nonstick baking sheet or waxed paper. Cool completely in the refrigerator.
