My grandpa made these himself quite often, especially at Christmas time. Quick, easy, and no baking required! Also, try walnuts in place of the peanuts for a different version.
Ingredients
- 3 cups quick cooking oats
- 1 cup flaked coconut
- 1 cup roasted peanuts, chopped
- 1 cup raisins (Optional)
- 2 cups white sugar
- ½ cup milk
- ¼ cup butter
- ¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
Directions
Step 1
Mix the oats, coconut, peanuts, and raisins together in a large bowl.
Step 2
Stir the sugar, milk, butter, and cocoa powder together in a saucepan and bring to a boil; boil for 1 minute and immediately remove from heat. Stir the vanilla into the cocoa mixture; pour over the oat mixture and stir to coat. Scoop heaping tablespoonfuls of the mixture and drop into haystack-like piles onto waxed paper; allow to cool completely before serving.
