When I was in Utah visiting my cousin she made these. Hers didn't set, but they were still delicious. So tonight I got the craving to make them. Found a recipe on allrecipes.com, and thanks to the comments of people I figured out that she probably didn't let it boil long enough. I made sure it was really boiling for 1.5 to 2 minutes.
Ingredients
1 3/4 cups white sugar
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup butter
4 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 cup crunchy peanut butter (used creamy, added a few more oats to keep crunchy)
3 cups quick-cooking oats
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Directions
In a medium saucepan, combine sugar, milk, butter, and cocoa. Bring to a boil, and cook for 1 1/2 minutes. Remove from heat, and stir in peanut butter, oats, and vanilla. Drop by teaspoonfuls onto wax paper. Let cool until hardened.
