COCOA QUICKIES

Steps:

• Place the milk, butter, sugar, and cocoa in a medium sized saucepan, and bring to a full rolling boil. Boil for one minute. Remove from heat, and stir in oats. Mix in coconut, if desired. Drop by teaspoonfuls onto waxed paper. Let stand until set. Quickies may be refrigerated to speed setting.

QUICKIE COOKIES (NO-BAKES)

Steps:

• 1. Mix the sugar, cocoa, butter and milk in a saucepan. Bring to a strong boil for 1 & 1/2 to 2 & 1/2 minutes NO LONGER.
• 2. Add vanilla and peanut butter; stir quickly and thoroughly to melt peanut butter. Add oats and mix quickly...this step must be where the quickie comes from in the title of quickie cookies :-)
• 3. Again, quickly pour mixture in a greased dish (13X9) or whatever you have. Press into pan evenly. When cooled, cut into squares.
• 4. *Note* My mom dropped spoonfuls on wax paper, but I find it easier to put it all in a dish and let it cool. I think to have enough time to drop by spoonfuls before the mix hardens, I would only boil the mixture for 1 1/2 to 2 minutes.
