Description

If you're looking for an easy baking recipe to make with kids, this no-bake oatmeal-peanut butter is a sure winner.

Ingredients

2 cups white sugar
1/2 cup unsalted butter
1/2 cup milk
3 tablespoons cocoa powder
2 cups rolled oats
1/2 cup peanut butter
1 tablespoon vanilla extract

Directions

1 Stir sugar, butter, milk, and cocoa powder together in a saucepan over medium heat; bring to a boil. Boil for 1 to 2 minutes; err on the side of longer because if it doesn't boil enough, it won't set. Remove from the heat.
2 Immediately stir in oats, peanut putter, and vanilla. Stir until completely mixed. Spoon onto waxed paper and let sit until hard, 10 to 15 minutes.
