Ingredients

• 1 C sugar
• ¼ C unsweetened baking cocoa
• ½ C butter
• ½ C milk

• 1 tbsp vanilla extract
• 3 C quick oats

Instructions

1. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a baking mat.
2. Stir together sugar, baking cocoa, butter, and milk in a large saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium heat. Boil for 2 minutes, stirring frequently to prevent scorching.
3. Remove from heat. Stir in peanut butter and vanilla until smooth. Stir in oats until combined. Add trail mix and stir to combine.
4. Drop batter by heaping tablespoon (or use an ice cream scoop) onto prepared baking sheet.
5. Place baking sheet in the refrigerator and allow to cool for at least 30 minutes. If your house is warm, you may want to continue to store the cookies in the refrigerator.
