Lee from Pennsylvania shared this recipe with us - we are always a bit scared making "old family recipes", just in case they don't end up looking anything like how they should. All we can say is that these are very yummy! We filled a jar to give away, and have another one left over to eat ourselves. Thanks so much, Lee! Here's the recipe, in Lee's own words:
This is one that I do every year, it can't be Christmas with out them. This recipe has been made in my family for as long as anyone can remember. and of course they are my fav! They are also super easy. We never knew the real name so they are called Tiger's cookies (that was my nick name as a child) 3 cups oatmeal, 3 Tablespoons baking Cocoa powder, mix them in a large bowl and set aside. now boil 1/2 cup milk, 2 cups sugar,1/4 cup butter once it has come to a rolling boil add 1/2 cup peanut butter. take off heat add the dry ingredients. Have a baking sheet covered in wax paper, drop teaspoons of the dough onto it, let cool and enjoy once they have cooled. To store keep in a tin. Hope you like them as much as I do and still enjoy making them with my family.
