-1 tsp vanilla extract
-pinch of salt (one good shake from shaker)

-3 cups quick cooking oats


*Melt butter in lg. saucepan, add sugar, cocoa powder and milk. BOIL for one minute, remove from burner, stir in vanilla, salt, peanut butter and oats. Mix well.

-I don't know about you, but my kids' have never let these cookies go untouched for that long :)
