No-Bake Cookies A.K.A. Frogs

Ella wanted to do a cooking show for you, so here is a tutorial for making chocolate frogs.  A very good choice during this endless hot and humid weather.

Here's your ingredients:

2 c white sugar                                               1/2 c cocoa

1/2 c milk (we used almond)                      1/2 c butter

1 t vanilla                                                         3/4 c peanut butter (we only have chunky)

3 1/2 c quick oats

In a large pot (ignore my dirty stove, I've been canning) combine the sugar, cocoa, milk, and butter.

Slowly bring to a boil making sure the butter is all melted and the sugar dissolved.

Boil for 2 minutes.

Turn off the heat.  Add peanut butter and vanilla.  Stir till it melts.  Add in the oats and mix well.

Scoop the cookies onto cookie sheet liners or wax paper.  Let them sit until cool (or at least firm).  This makes about 3 dozen depending on the size you make the cookies.
