2 cups sugar
½ cup milk
½ cup butter
½ cup cocoa powder
¼ tsp salt
2/3 cup peanut butter
3 cups oats
1 tsp vanilla extract
Combine sugar, milk, butter, salt, and cocoa in a pan and bring to a boil. Once it has reached a full boil, time it for 1 minute and remove from heat. Stir in peanut butter and vanilla until the peanut butter is all melted in, then add the oats. Drop by tablespoonfuls onto wax paper. Let cool until hardened (it should only be a few minutes).

This recipe is from my grandmother, and I believe it's the original cookie recipe that used to come written on the Special K boxes.
1 cup corn syrup
1 cup sugar
1 cup peanut butter
6 cups Special K cereal
Put your cereal in a large bowl, and lay out a large sheet of waxed paper.
Bring corn syrup and sugar to a boil until sugar is dissolved. Remove from heat and mix in peanut butter.
Pour over cereal and mix well. Spoon cereal into cookies on wax paper and cool.
Substitute whatever cereal you like.

2 cups flour
½ cup oats
4 tsp baking powder
½ cup honey
¼ cup apple sauce
1 ¼ cup milk
¾ cup peanut butter
Preheat oven to 400° F. Mix the dry ingredients together, then add the wet ingredients, excluding the peanut butter, and stir until just mixed. Let the batter sit for a minute or so, so the baking powder can start working it, then stir in the peanut butter. Spoon into greased muffin tins and bake for 15-20 minutes. Makes 12.
The peanut flavor is not overpowering, nor is it grossly sweet. The texture is light and fluffy, and perfectly moist. They kept the moisture for a number of days after baking them (store in an airtight container).
Variations:
Add 2 Tbsp cocoa powder.
Use any kind of nut butter you want.
Use flavored apple sauce.
Use a fruit butter instead of applesauce.
