Chocolate Oatmeal Cookies

I have a yummy, quick, no bake cookie recipe to share with you today: Chocolate Peanut Butter Oatmeal Cookies. They are delicious. My family and I have been making them for years and we still adore them. Here's how to make 'em:

Chocolate Peanut Butter Oatmeal Cookies

2 cups sugar
1 stick butter
1/2 cup cocoa
1/2 cup milk
3 cups oats*
3/4 cup peanut butter
1 tsp vanilla
wax paper

Bring sugar, butter, cocoa and milk to a boil in a large sauce pan. Once boiling, cook one minute. Turn off heat and add oats, peanut butter and vanilla. Stir well. Spoon cookies onto wax paper. Let set at least 5 minutes. Cookies will become more firm the more time you give them to set up.

*You can use either quick cooking oats or regular oats. Quick cooking oats are preferred by our family because they are less firm and chewy than regular but both are good.

Happy Cookie Making!
