Method 6 steps
Combine the sugar and cocoa in a saucepan, and stir well.
Add milk and stir well. Add butter and place over medium-high heat.
Bring mixture to a boil. When it reaches a rolling boil that cannot be stirred down, boil while stirring for exactly 1 minute.
Remove from heat and add peanut butter and vanilla. Stir until peanut butter is melted and mixture is smooth.
Add oatmeal and stir to combine. Immediately spoon the mixture onto a cookie sheet, leaving enough space between them for spreading out.
Let stand on counter for at least 20 minutes to stiffen or refrigerate to speed up the process.
