No Bake Cookie

Here's the recipe for the yummy "no bake cookies" that we had a few times at 40/40.  I've actually never made them, but after watching Matilda make them and enjoying eating them so much, I think it will be something I made next time I need a sweet cookie for an event.  Just remember to use regular blue band - or butter, not a low fat substitute since those usually have water in them.  The first ones Matilda made didn't set up and I think the reason is because she used the "low fat blue band".  (they still tasted great, but were very messy to eat).


No Bake Cookies
2 C sugar           ¼ C cocoa          ½ C milk           ½ C margarine or butter    1 t vanilla         
½ C peanut butter                                    3 C oatmeal
Cook sugar, cocoa, milk, and margarine until it comes to a full rolling boil. Boil and stir for 2 minutes. Remove from heat and add vanilla, peanut butter and oatmeal. Mix well and drop by teaspoonful onto cookie sheet.
