No-Bake Chocolate Clusters - cooking recipe

Ingredients

3 tablespoons cocoa
2 cups granulated sugar
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup peanut butter
3 cups quick-cooking oats
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 pinch salt

Preparation

Have sheets of waxed paper on the counter or table, ready to go.
Mix the cocoa, sugar, milk and butter in a heavy, medium-sized saucepan.
Place over medium heat and bring to a rolling boil; don't stir once it boils.
Boil until the soft-ball stage.
Remove from heat and stir in the peanutbutter, oats, vanilla and salt.
Working quickly, drop by spoonfuls onto waxed paper and let set at room temperature until firm.
Quantities vary; it depends on how much you drop from your spoon.
2 dozen is an approximation.
