Ann's Chocolate Oatmeal Drop Cookies

This comes from Dave's mom. He had a hankerin', so I made them. Easy and yummy!

1/2 C milk
1/2 C butter
1/3 C cocoa powder
2 C sugar
3 C oatmeal
1/2 C chunky peanut butter
1 tsp vanilla

Melt butter, milk, cocoa powder and sugar in saucepan. Bring to a boil; boil 1 minute. Remove from heat, stir in vanilla. In the meantime, combine oatmeal and peanut butter in medium bowl. Add chocolate mixture; stir to combine. Refrigerate 1 hour. Drop by tablespoonfuls onto waxed paper. Chill until set. Keep refrigerated in airtight container.

*I've made this even easier on myself by making them into bars instead of drop cookies. After you add the chocolate mixture and stir to combine, pour onto a parchment (or wax) paper lined baking sheet. Cool and cut into squares.
