My favorite cookies are No Bakes.
- 2 cups sugar
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/2 cup or 1 stick butter
- 1/2 cup baking cocoa
- 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
- 2 1/2 cups quick rolled oats
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
In a saucepan, bring sugar, milk, butter, and cocoa to a boil for 3 minutes. Remove from heat. Add peanut butter, oats, and vanilla; mix well. Drop by rounded teaspoon onto wax paper. Remove when cooled.
While making this yummy treat this past week, I happened upon another one of my favorite things: a thoroughly cleaned out peanut butter jar. Weird, I know. But for some reason I just love getting in there with a rubber spatula and getting everything I can out. Maybe it's a compulsion, maybe I'm just cheap, or maybe I want to make it easy for recycling. For whatever reason I feel a strange sense of pride whenever I see this:
LOL ... No, I think you're just weird. But that's okay. I forgive you. LOL
