No Bake Cookies

This are my husband's favorite cookies and the best part about them is that they are easy to make and they use ingredients I always have on hand.  They are also nice to make in the summertime as they do not require an oven.

3 cups of quick cook oats
3 Tablespoons of Cocoa powder
1/2 cup of peanut butter
2 cups of sugar
1 stick of butter or margarine
1/2 cup of milk

Place the oats and cocoa in a bowl and add the peanut butter in the middle of the bowl.  In a saucepan, melt the sugar, butter and milk.  When it comes to a boil, count to 65 and then pour it over the oat mixture and stir well.  Spoon onto wax paper or foil and allow it to cool.  This batch makes approximately 3 dozen cookies.
