I found this on a website (which I have directed you to in the title) as I was looking for Lunch Box Ideas for my 3 children. I read the ingrediants list, realized I had everything on it, got it all together and took less than about 20min to do it all. Now we wait. The Mixture tastes good warm, and they are now sitting in the oven to cool down (I know, sounds strange, but I have little sparrows that like to come into my house, so the safest place is the oven). I'll report back when they are cooled and ready to eat.
I will say this.. My husband, who doesn't have a sweet tooth at all, came upstairs from watching golf and said "what are you doing?" I said, found these on the net and am trying them out. He too a finger full of the mix.. then brought me a small bowl and asked if he could have some in the bowl, just like that, not cooled or nothing.. So I'm guessing they are really good.
2 cups sugar
1/2 cup butter
1/4 cup cocoa
1/2 cup milk
1/4 cup creamy peanut butter
1 tsp. vanilla
3-1/2 cups uncooked oats
1 cup shredded coconut
1. In a large saucepan combine sugar, butter, cocoa and milk. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally.
2. Remove from heat and stir in peanut butter and vanilla. Add oats and coconut; mix well.
3. Drop by tablespoonfulls onto wax paper. Allow to cool and set.
Yield: about 3 dozen cookies.
