No Bake Chocolate Peanut Butter Oatmeal Cookies
We're making these for dessert for the missionaries tonight. Yum!
- 2 c white sugar (reduce if you don't like them too sweet)
- 3 Tbsp. unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 cup butter or margarine
- 1/2 c milk
- 1 pinch salt
- 3 cups oats (I like old fashioned oats best)
- 1/2 c peanut butter
- 1 tsp. vanilla
- In saucepan bring sugar, cocoa, butter and milk to boil
- Wait until it is at a rolling rapid boil and set the timer for one minute. I am convinced this and good measuring are the keys to a good vs. terrible no bake cookie.
- After the minute of rapid boiling, add vanilla and peanut butter, Mix well
- Add oats. Mix well again.
- Using your handy dandy cookie scoop (or two spoons) put in tablespoon size amount on wax paper or parchment paper to harden. Sometimes its good to re-mix it to keep from having some dry cookies and other runny ones.
- let cool and enjoy.
