Stovetop

Ingredients

  • 1 stick butter
  • 2 cups sugar
  • 4 tsp cocoa
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • ½ cup milk
  • ⅔ cup peanut butter
  • 3 cups quick oatmeal

Directions

  1. In a saucepan, mix together butter, sugar, cocoa, vanilla, and milk.
  2. Bring to a rolling boil and boil for exactly 1 minute. Remove from heat immediately.
  3. Quickly stir in peanut butter and quick oatmeal until well combined.
  4. Drop by spoonfuls onto wax paper.
  5. Allow to cool and set completely before serving.
Tip: Boil for exactly 1 minute — too little and they won't set, too much and they'll be crumbly.
