1 stick Margarine
2 cups sugar
4 tablespoons cocoa
1/2 cup milk
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup peanut butter
3 cups quick cooking oatmeal

Mix together the margarine, sugar, cocoa and milk over medium heat in a large heavy pot-stirring constantly. Bring to a hard, rolling boil. Boil for 3 minutes. Pull from the heat and quickly add the vanilla and peanut butter. Stir very quickly to melt the peanut butter. Add the oatmeal, again stirring quickly.

Drop by spoonfuls onto waxed paper. They will set up fairly quickly in a non-humid environment (here in Florida I usually have to refrigerate them for about 30 minutes).

Enjoy!
