No Bake Cocoa Mounds

This recipe tasted great! I think the recipe should include how long you should wait before they are cooled, and how many mounds the recipe usually makes- I had to just lay them out until I had no more. However, the recipe was great, and I will definitely use it again!

I've been making cocoa mounds since I was about 5 years old (by myself), and this is the one and only perfect recipe! So quick and simple to make, and at my house they never actually get a chance to cool before they're all gone. Love love love. My only note to those planning on making them is to add the oats last. Once they're in, it's impossible to get the vanilla and peanut butter mixed.

My mom made these for us! Growing up 1950's we had tight budget... We bought no junk food... This was sure special, still is. As a grams we make them together. This recipe is the exact one we made when I was little :)
