* 1/2 cup margarine
* 1/2 cup milk

2. Add quick cooking oats, peanut butter, and vanilla; mix well.

3. Working quickly, drop by teaspoonfuls onto waxed paper, and let cool.

This is one of my absolute favorite desserts! Only I omit the peanut butter and pour it into small cups and eat it hot with a splash of milk. I call it "chocolate oatmeal perfection". Lol
