When making these cookies, let them cool a little bit before shaping them. I found that it was best to pack the dough into a round spoon before dropping it onto the wax paper. These cookies are a bit like homemade granola bars. In fact, you could even shape them into bars. I think they will be great stored in the freezer and taken along for an on-the-go snack.
- 2 cups sugar
- 1/2 cup butter
- 6 Tbsp. cocoa
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 tsp. vanilla
- 1 cups chopped nuts
- 3 cups quick cooking oatmeal
Boil sugar, butter, cocoa, and milk in a heavy saucepan for one minute. Cool slightly. Stir in vanilla, nuts, oatmeal. Allow to cool slightly more. Drop by teaspoon onto wax paper. Let cookies set. Enjoy!
