Family Recipe (No bake cookies)

½ cup milk
1 stick butter
2 cups sugar
1/3 Cup Cocoa

Prepare either wax paper or buttered platter to put the cookies on. I like to use wax paper myself but could use parchment paper. Mix together and bring to boil....boil one minute. I might let this boil 3 minutes, especially if I have doubled or tripled the recipe.

Remove from heat and Add:

3 Tablespoons peanut butter
1 teaspoon vanilla
3 cups oatmeal

Stir quickly and drop by spoonfuls onto wax paper. Should harden in an hour. If it hardens too quickly in the pan you can add up to half cup milk and stir together over low heat and try to spoon out again. Add the milk slowly and add just enough to liquefy the mixture. Careful not to burn. Drop as above.
