Ingredients:
1 3/4 cups white sugar
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup margarine (such as Country Crock(R))
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
3 cups quick-cooking oats
1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions:
Prepare Baking Sheet:
Line a baking sheet with waxed paper. This will prevent the cookies from sticking and make for easier cleanup.
Combine Wet Ingredients:
In a large saucepan, combine white sugar, milk, margarine, and unsweetened cocoa powder.
Boil Mixture:
Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly. Allow it to boil for 1 1/2 minutes. Be attentive to avoid burning.
Remove from Heat:
After boiling, remove the saucepan from the heat source.
Add Dry Ingredients:
Stir in the quick-cooking oats, creamy peanut butter, and vanilla extract until the dough is evenly mixed. Ensure that all ingredients are well incorporated.
Form Cookies:
Using a tablespoon, drop portions of the dough onto the prepared baking sheet. Space them apart to allow for spreading.
Cool and Set:
Allow the cookies to rest until cooled and set, which typically takes about 50 minutes. This cooling time helps the cookies firm up.
Serve:
Once the cookies are completely set, transfer them to a serving plate or an airtight container. They are now ready to be enjoyed!
Store:
Store any leftover cookies in an airtight container at room temperature. They can also be refrigerated for a longer shelf life.
