Chocolate Peanut Butter Oatmeal No Bake Cookies
(I "borrowed" this pic and I can't remember from who...sorry)
Yield: 2 to 3 dozen, depending on how large you make them
½ cup (1 stick) butter
2 cups granulated sugar
½ cup milk
4 tablespoons cocoa powder
½ cup peanut butter
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
3 cups quick-cooking oats
1. Add the first four ingredients (through the cocoa powder) to a 4-quart saucepan.
2. Bring to a rolling boil and let boil for 1 minute.
3. Remove from heat.
4. Stir in the peanut butter and vanilla until smooth, then stir in the oats.
5. Drop by heaping tablespoons onto wax paper.
6. Let cool until set.
If you cook it longer than one minute it can get too crumbly so sometimes I pour the mix into a bowl then add the peanut butter, vanilla and oats…chopped walnuts are especially good in them too!
