Oatmeal No Bake Cookies Recipe

1 stick of butter
2 C sugar
1/2 C milk
1/2 C peanut butter (sometimes I add more) (can substitute apple sauce)
3 Tlbs cocoa
1/2 tsp vanilla

Bring to a boil. Boil 3 minutes. If you don't wait 3 minutes cookie will not set up. If you boil longer cookie will crumble

Take off burner and mix in 3 to 4 cups of oats. I use quick oats. If you use whole oats it might take less.

Spoon out onto counter and let set.

You may add raisins, coconut or nuts if you like.

This is one of my dh's favorite cookies ever. He said they served them when he was in elem school. I learned how to make them a few years back. I actually made some yesterday and took them to a party last night. They were a hit and went fast. Great cookie recipe

Excellent cookie recipe! My mom made these when I was a kid. A word of caution, though...don't try to use a butter substitute. I did that once and they would not set.
