    With familiar favorites like Marshmallow Treats and Peanut Butter Haystacks, as well as new discoveries such as Chocolate Mice shaped from a chocolate/sour cream/cookie crumb "dough," these no-bake delights are sure to please. One of my favorite features at AllRecipes is the user-submitted photos. Some of these delightful creations were certainly made by kids. I just loved browsing through them!

It's no surprise that Quick and Easy Brownies "won" first place. Doesn't everyone love chocolate?
