Before my aunt moved to Idaho we used to do a Christmas cookie bake every year. Mom had her favorites, Aunt Jenny had her favorites, Aunt Tina had hers and so did Marissa. My favorite were No Bake Cookies. I am going to try and make them this weekend. I don't know what it is about them but I love them. 
2 cups granulated sugar 
1/2 cup butter 
1/2 cup milk 
1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder 
Pinch of salt 
1 teaspoon vanilla extract 
3 tablespoons peanut butter
3 cups quick oats 
In large saucepan, combine sugar, butter, milk, cocoa and salt. Bring to boil over medium heat, stirring frequently. Continue boiling 3 minutes, stirring frequently. 
Remove from heat. Stir in vanilla and peanut butter; stirring until peanut butter is melted. Add oats and mix well. 
Drop by tablespoonfuls onto waxed paper. Let stand until firm. Store tightly covered. 
I don't remember there being peanut butter but something has to keep them together. We will see how they turn out I will let you know. :-)
