Peanut butter no-bake cookies
3 C white sugar
1-1/2 sticks butter or margarine
3/4 C milk
1-1/2 C peanut butter (smooth or chunky)
1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
4-1/2 C quick oats
Cook sugar, butter and milk in a saucepan on medium heat until you’ve brought it to a rolling boil, stirring constantly. Once it reaches a rolling boil, cook for 2 minutes, stirring constantly (no more!). Remove from heat and mix in peanut butter and vanilla until fully incorporated. Stir in quick oats a little at a time. Continue to stir gently until mixture has cooled a bit and is thicker. Drop onto wax paper to cool completely and harden.
