Gorilla Poops! (No-Bake Cookies) Jill Adams

My oldest sister always made these and called them gorilla poops.  As I got older, I realized that nobody else calls them this (including my husband), and really, it's not a very appetizing name.  I began to believe that my sister made up this name on her own until one day not too long ago a Facebook friend of mine referred to them by the name of gorilla poops.  I was surprised, and a little excited to know that my family was not the only ones.  For all the rest of you, here are "No-Bake Cookies".

Gorilla Poops, No-Bake Cookies
1/2 c. butter
2 c. sugar
1/2 c. milk
2-3 tbs. cocoa (I use 3)

Bring to a boil, turn to low, and cook for 3 minutes.  Immediately add:

1/2 c. peanut butter
1 tsp. vanilla
4 or more cups of oatmeal, depending on your preference.  

Drop by spoonsful onto waxed paper.
