I was looking through my cupboards, and in the mood for a sweet snack. I ended up making these; They’re pretty good, and quite easy to make!
What you’ll need:
- 4 tablespoons (half stick) butter or margarine
- 3/4 cup Karo (corn syrup) – I use the light stuff
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup peanut butter (creamy works best)
- 2-1/2 cups rolled oats
How to prepare:
Mix syrup, sugar, and butter in a saucepan. Mix/blend over medium heat until it begins to bubble. Let it cook for two minutes longer. Fold peanut butter into mix, stir until entire mixture is liquidy. Slowly stir in oats; it should get quite difficult towards the end, with barely enough peanut butter mix to seep through. Immediately spoon onto aluminum foil. Let cool, or chill in fridge.
Makes about 2 dozen small (teaspoon) or 1.5 dozen large cookies.
