Preparation Steps

• In a medium saucepan, combine the granulated sugar, butter, milk, and cocoa powder.
• Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat. Let it boil for exactly 1 minute, stirring constantly.
• Remove the saucepan from the heat. Stir in the peanut butter and vanilla extract until smooth.
• Add the rolled oats and mix well to coat them evenly with the chocolate mixture.
• Drop spoonfuls of the mixture onto waxed paper or parchment paper to form cookies. Work quickly as the mixture will begin to set.
• Let the cookies cool and set completely at room temperature, or in the refrigerator for faster setting.
