No Bake Cookies

No Bake Cookies have been at every holiday event at my house since I can remember.  Nothing would be the same without No Bake Cookies showing up somewhere on our spread!

2 cups sugar
1 stick butter
1/3 cup milk
4 tablespoons cocoa
3 cups oats
1/2 cup peanut butter (or nutella)
1 tsp. vanilla

In a medium size sauce pan, combine sugar, butter, milk, and cocoa.  Bring to a low boil and boil for 1 minute.  And I mean a LOW boil.  Start timing when it starts to boil along the edges.  After 1 minute remove from heat and add oats, peanut butter, and vanilla.  Stir together and drop by tablespoons full onto wax paper.  Allow cookies to cool and store in air tight container.
