2 c. sugar
1/4 c. cocoa
1/4 c. butter
1/2 c. milk
2 1/2 c. regular oats (uncooked)*
3/4 c. crunchy peanut butter (or creamy)
2 tsp. vanilla extract

Combine sugar, cocoa, butter and milk in a heavy saucepan. Stir well. Cook over medium heat until mixture comes to a boil. Boil 1 minute. Stir in oats, peanut butter and vanilla. Drop dough by heaping teaspoons onto lightly greased wax paper. Cool thoroughly.

Yield: about 4 dozen.

*I use 1-minute quick oats and it works well.
