2 c. sugar
1/4 c. unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 c. milk
1/2 c. butter
1 tbsp. light corn syrup
1/4 c. peanut butter
2 c. quick cooking rolled oats

In heavy saucepan stir together sugar and cocoa powder; stir in milk. Add butter and corn syrup; bring to boiling, stirring occasionally. Boil vigorously for 3 minutes. Stir in peanut butter, then rolled oats.

Return mixture to boiling. Remove from heat; beat until slightly thickened. Immediately drop from a teaspoon onto waxed paper. (If spreads too much, beat a little longer.) Cool. Makes about 36.
