Chocolate No Bake Oatmeal Bars

These are so easy and my family loves them!  So special to have in my mother’s hand writing as a nice memory.  These can also be made into small cookies!

Recipe:

1/4 lb or 1/2 cup (1 stick) butter
2 cups sugar
4 T cocoa
1/2 cup original almond milk

Combine above ingredients and bring to a rapid boil. Let  simmer for 1 minute.  When done simmering, add the following ingredients:

1 tsp vanilla
1/2 cup chunk style or smooth natural peanut butter (I like Skippy Natural)
3 cups quick oatmeal

Stir well and put in a greased 9×13 pan.  When cool, cut and serve.  These will be gone in 2 days I guarentee!

This is my guide to eating grains and carbs without suffering and a tribute to my mother and grandmother along the way. It's kind of a "Julie and Julia" type of project to preserve my legacy of family recipes while adjusting them to meet my own dietary needs.
