I made a batch of these cookies and they were delicous. I did have to do a little reading ahead. The directions can be a little misleading. Mix 4 ingredients sugar, margarine, dry milk, and water should be whats said. I am just saying that through the mom who would have kids running and screaming and wouldn't have time to think what she was doing. I put the oatmeal in last so the cookies could harden with the last ingredient added. I did add 2% whole milk while stirring in the oatmeal because it was tough to stir by hand. Did that defeat the purpose of the dry milk? Also after placing the 2 dozen or so cookies on the wax paper I put them in the fridge. I like them chilled. I loved the recipe and thank you for having it posted online.

Instructions
Mix first 4 ingredients in a saucepan. Heat until it boils, stirring well. Remove from heat; add peanut butter, stirring until it 'melts in'. Add oatmeal, cocoa, and vanilla. Mix thoroughly. Drop by tablespoon on wax paper or clean smooth table top. Let them cool.

I generally stir in more oatmeal than the recipe calls for because they harden up faster, and we can eat them sooner. ;)
