No Bake Chocolate Peanut Butter Oatmeal Cookies


Think of the best fudge you've ever eaten combined with the taste of oatmeal and just a hint of peanut butter flavor.  Add the fact that you don't have the mess and time factor of baking.  These are hands down my favorite cookie.

2 c. white sugar
1 t. vanilla
2/3 c. butter (10 2/3 tablespoons)
1/2 c. milk
4 tablespoons cocoa (dark, unsweetened)

2/3 cup creamy peanut butter
3 cups regular oatmeal

  1. Bring the first 5 ingredients to a boil and cook for 2 minutes stirring constantly.
  2. Turn off the stove and add the peanut butter and oatmeal.
  3. On a sheet of waxed paper, drop mixture by the teaspoonfuls, until cooled and hardened.
