How To Make no-bake cookies

• 
  Step 1
  Put sugar, margarine/butter, cocoa and milk in a medium sauce pan. Bring to boil, stirring often.
• 
  Step 2
  Boil for 5 minutes or until soft ball stage. (You can test this without a candy thermometer by putting some cold water in a clear glass, and dropping a few drops of the boiling mixture into it. It should form into a ball, and when you take it out of the water, it should flatten in your hand in seconds. If it doesn't form into a ball, try again after a minute, and continue doing so until it does flatten like a pancake in your hand.)
• 
  Step 3
  Remove from heat. Add the vanilla and peanut butter. Stir until the peanut butter is partially melted. Begin stirring in the oats one cup at a time, until they are well coated, and then add in the next cup. They will be come harder to mix the more oats you add.
• 
  Step 4
  Drop by teaspoonfuls (not measuring teaspoons, just regular eating teaspoons)onto waxed paper. Let cool.
• 
  Step 5
  Peel off of the waxed paper, and store in an airtight container!
• 
  Step 6
  If your family loves peanut butter and chocolate as much as my family does, they won't last a day! =0)
