Peanut Butter Cocoa No-Bake Cookies

This recipe is one of the best no-bake cookie recipes I know of. I have made many different recipes but they all seem to turn out dry. This recipe has not failed me yet. In fact, I usually double this recipe.  They have a very good balance of chocolate and peanut butter. 

Ingredients:

• 2 cups white sugar

• 1/2 cup butter

• 1/2 cup milk

• 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

• 2/3 cup peanut butter

• 3 cups quick cooking oats

• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Directions:

1. Place a piece of wax paper or foil on cookie sheet. 

2. Combine sugar, butter, milk, and cocoa in medium saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until mixture comes to rolling boil. Remove from heat; cool 1 minute.

3. Add peanut butter; stir to blend.

4.  Add oats, peanuts, and vanilla; stir to mix well.

5.  Quickly drop mixture by heaping teaspoons onto wax paper or foil. Cool completely.

6.  Store in cool, dry place
