These cocoa, oatmeal & peanut butter cookies are creamy and fudge-like.
Ingredients:
½ cup butter (1 stick)
½ cup milk or cream
4
Tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder (regular or "special dark")
1 teaspoon vanilla
1
cup sugar
½
cup peanut butter1 teaspoon vanilla
3
cups quick cooking oats
Method:
Place butter in a large saucepan. Melt over medium heat. Add milk and stir. Whisk in cocoa and sugar. Boil for 1 minute.
Add peanut butter and stir until blended into chocolate mixture. Add vanilla and oats.
Stir until thickened.(1 or 2 minutes.)
Remove from heat. Drop by spoonfuls onto wax paper lined cookie sheets.
Refrigerate until set. Remove from cookie sheets and place into an airtight container, with pieces of wax paper between each layer of cookies. Store container of cookies in the
refrigerator. Makes 3 dozen.
Notes: This recipe from Grandma Kathy Henderson makes nutritious, creamy, fudge-like cookies. Even though I prefer "Old Fashioned Oats", it is important to use "Quick Cooking Oats", in this recipe. ("Old Fashioned Oats" will be too dry and difficult to swallow.)
