• 1-1/2 cups sugar
• 1/2 cup cocoa
• 1/2 cup evaporated milk
• 1/3 cup butter or margarine
• 1/3 cup peanut butter
• 1-1/2 cups quick-cooking oats, uncooked
• 1/2 cup pecans or walnuts, chopped
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Combine sugar, cocoa, milk, and butter in a heavy saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until mixture reaches a slow boil (mixture will bubble around sides). Cook 2 additional minutes, stirring constantly.

Remove from heat; add peanut butter, and stir until smooth. Stir in oats, pecans, and vanilla.

Drop mixture by tablespoonfuls onto waxed paper. Cool.
