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 Alicia's version of what we call Boiled Cookies. (We spoon ours out on waxed paper!) Our Ezekiel (8 years old) loves to make these. A fun family project on a rainy day! ~Bayley
