2 c. sugar
1/2 c. butter
1/2 c. milk
5 tbsp. cocoa
3 1/2 c. instant oats (not long cooking)
1/2 - 1 c. chopped nuts (opt.)
1/2 tsp. vanilla

May need more oats to thicken.

Mix and boil for 2 to 3 minutes (time from rolling boil) the sugar, butter and milk. Remove from heat, add cocoa, oats, nuts and vanilla. Beat until consistency to drop on wax paper. Cool. You can add peanut butter.
