So good and easy to make! My siblings and I made huge batches of these cookies Sunday afternoons, and they were usually gone by Tuesday! The time for boiling the mixture is listed at 5 minutes, but if you cook it a little less, the cookies are chewier. Ingredients:
2 cups sugar |
1/2 cup milk |
1/2 cup butter or 1/2 cup margarine |
1/2 cup cocoa |
1 dash salt |
1/2 teaspoon vanilla |
3 cups rolled oats |
1 cup flaked coconut |
Directions:
1. In a medium saucepan, combine sugar, milk, butter, cocoa (I tend to go a little heavy on the cocoa) and salt. 2. Heat to boiling, stirring frequently. 3. When it has reached a rolling boil, cook for 5 minutes, stirring constantly. 4. Remove pan from heat and mix in vanilla, oats and coconut. 5. Drop by spoonfuls onto wax paper. 6. Work quickly! 7. Let cool. 8. Alternate/optional additions, add any one with coconut: 1/2-3/4 cup mini marshmallows or 1/2 cup walnuts. |
