Boiled Cookies

Boiled cookies are something my mom, sister, and I used to make all the time when I was little.  Eating them brings me back to my childhood.  I hope one day my girls will share these with their children and bring back memories too!

Here's what you'll need:

2 cups sugar
3 T baking coca
1/2 cup milk
1 stick margarine
1 tsp vanilla
1/2 cup peanut butter
3 cups oatmeal
wax paper

1) Combine the sugar, baking coca, milk, and margarine.  Bring to a rolling boil and boil for one minute.
2)  Remove from heat and add the vanilla and peanut butter.  Stir until peanut butter melts.

3)  Add the oatmeal and stir until all oatmeal is coated.

4)  Drop on waxed paper by teaspoonful (or more, like we did). Refrigerate until cool.

 5)  Enjoy!  Mmmm....

Do you have a special treat that brings you back to your childhood?

  1. I love these cookies! We make them every Christmas while the oven is full of all the other tasty treats we're making. :)

  2. My grandma's Sally Ann cookies. They're made with molasses and instant coffee and covered with a hard white icing. I could eat a whole batch myself.
