I google and looked at recipes and decided that baking and dough handling is not what I want to do right now. I found a no bake cookie and it looks good. Here goes.
3 cups sugar
3/4 cup butter
3/4 cup milk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups peanut butter
4 1/2 cups quick-cooking oats
First, I boil the sugar, butter, and milk in a sauce pan. When I first put everything in the sauce pan, it didn't make sense to boil this solid mass of sugar, but it worked. Crazy. Boil it for a minute then take it off of the heat.
Mix in everything else and stir it until it become a uniform blob of brown.
Spoon little patches onto a big piece of wax paper to cool and set.
Once set, eat!
This turned out a lot better than expected considering how easy this is. It's a little too sweet for me, but I wouldn't know how to make just as much with less sugar. Would I use more milk? Either way, I'm happy.
