Peanut Butter FREE No bake cookies

So this is the no-bake cookie recipe I grew up with. It's my favorite, people usually put in the PB with out coconut and I started to search for this recipe online and never found it!  I have never seen this PB free recipe anywhere and luckily my mom still had this one.

NO BAKE COOKIES

3 c rolled oats
2c sugar

1 c coconut

6 Tbsp cocoa powder

1/2 c butter

1/2 c milk

1 tsp vanilla

Mix oats, coconut and cocoa

Heat butter, milk and sugar, boil for 4 minutes, stirring.

Remove from heat, add vanilla

Pour wet mixture over dry mixture, stir, cool slightly if you want to use your hands to make

balls . Otherwise  spoon onto pans or plates. Put in fridge until cold. We have also just put them on

wax paper on the counter and let them sit until cool.
