Nut-Free No Bake Cookies

Ingredients

• 1 stick Salted Sweet Cream Butter
• 2 cups Granulated White Sugar
• ⅓ cups Unsweetened Baking Cocoa
• ½ cups Whole Milk
• 3 cups Quick Oats
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
• 1 teaspoon Orange Extract (optional)

Preparation Instructions

Combine butter, sugar, cocoa, and milk in a saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a rolling boil, and let boil for 3 minutes.

Remove from heat. Add oats and vanilla extract (add orange extract at this time too, if desired), and mix well. Drop tablespoons of the mixture onto waxed paper, or a thoroughly greased baking sheet, and allow to cool.

Should make about 2 dozen cookies.

As an alternately awesome treat, I sometimes add orange extract to make them chocolate-orange flavored. So yummy!

Store in an air-tight container, with waxed paper separating the layers. Can store in fridge or on counter, but the fridge makes them a little less gooey.
