Recipe: Chocolate Nut Chews

Melissa, don't know if this is exactly what you want, but, try these.

Chocolate Nut Chews

1 1/2 cups sugar
1/2 cup cocoa
1/2 cup evaporated milk
1/3 cup butter or margarine
1/3 cup peanut butter
1 1/2 cups quick-cooking oats, uncooked
1/2 cup chopped pecans or walnuts
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Combine sugar, cocoa, milk, and butter in a heavy saucepan. Cook over medium

heat, stirring constantly, until mixture reaches a slow boil (mixture will

bubble around sides). Cook 2 additional minutes, stirring constantly.

Remove from heat; add peanut butter, and stir until smooth. Stir in oats,

pecans, and vanilla. Drop by tablespoonfuls onto wax paper; cool.

Yield: about 4 1/2 dozen.
