May I suggest planning a good bit of protein around these lovely treats or you'll feel dumb as a doorknob a day after indulging on these. Sugar will do that to you.
On the stove top in an extra large saucepan mix:
1/4 lb. butter
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup cocoa
1 1/2 cups sugar (or possibly less if you prefer)
Boil together for 1 minute stirring constantly.
Then remove from heat and add:
1/2 cup peanut butter
1 tsp. vanilla
3 cups uncooked quick oats
Stir well and drop by spoonfuls onto wax paper. Allow them to cool (set up) for a couple of hours before enjoying.
