Level of cooking: Easy

Ingredients

• 1.5 cups granulated sugar
• 1/4 cup unsalted butter
• 1 cup low-fat milk
• 1/2 cup Unsweetened natural cocoa powder
• 3 cups Oats (quick or old fashioned, uncooked)
• 1/2 cup peanut butter
• 1/2 cup roughly grounded nuts(as per choice)

Preparation:

• Line the baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats. 

Method:

1. In a large pan, combine sugar, butter, milk and cocoa powder. 
2. Boil this mixture over medium flame for 3 for minutes, Stir thoroughly, avoiding sticking to the bottom of the pan.
3. Remove from heat. 
4. Add peanut butter and mix well
5. Add oats and nuts and stir well. 
6. Allow it to sit for 2-3 minutes. This allows the oats to soak up some moisture.
7. Drop by tablespoonfuls of dough onto the lined baking sheets. 
8. If desired, flatten out and shape into a cookie. Repeat with the rest of the dough.
9. Let cool until set, about 30 minutes.

Tips: 

• If using old fashioned oats, cool mixture in saucepan 5 minutes.
• Coconut oil can be used instead of butter because it solidifies.
