Ingredients

  • 1 stick butter or margarine
  • 2 cups granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup evaporated milk
  • 1/2 cup cocoa
  • 3 cups quick cooking oats
  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter almond or sunflower may work as well
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla

Instructions

  • Cook the first four ingredients in a sauce pan over medium high until the butter melts completely and the sugar dissolves most of the way. 
  • Allow the mixture to just start to bubble and cook one minute over medium-low heat.  
  • Turn off heat and add the peanut butter, oats and vanilla and stir well. 
  • Drop by spoonfuls onto wax paper to cool. Allow a longer set time for humid days or you may need to place them in the fridge to firm.
