Quick No-Bake Oatmeal Cookies

Boil together for one minute, being careful not to burn

2 cups white sugar

1/2 cup cocoa

1/2 cup milk

Remove from heat and stir in

1/2 cup peanut butter

2 cups oatmeal - quick cooking type

1 teaspoon vanilla

Optional - stir in nuts, raisins, or coconut

 drop by spoonfuls onto waxed paper. I fill spoon and push it onto the paper with another spoon. Work quickly because it will cool fast. Cool on paper. Then remove from waxed paper and enjoy.

I do not recommend doubling the recipe since it hardens quickly as it cools. Much better to do a single recipe. Makes about 3 dozen depending upon the size of spoon you use.

Note: Got this recipe from Linda K.
