Mom's No Bake Cookies

I am posting mom's original recipe, however, I did make some modifications to make this a more healthful cookie. I used reduced fat butter, reduced the sugar to 3/4 cup, used skim milk, and used all natural peanut butter. These cookies are almost guilt free!

1/2 cup butter
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup milk
3 T cocoa powder
1 t vanilla
1/2 cup peanut butter
3 cups quick cook oats

In a large saucepan, add butter and begin to melt. Stir in next three ingredients and bring to a simmer. Cook for one minute.http://media-files.gather.com/images/d222/d555/d744/d224/d96/f3/full.jpg

Remove from heat; add vanilla and peanut butter and stir.

Stir in oatmeal til mixed well.The image

Drop onto a cookie sheet covered with wax paper or foil.http://media-files.gather.com/images/d220/d555/d744/d224/d96/f3/full.jpg

Refrigerate til chilled (if you can wait that long).
Enjoy!
