1/2 c  Butter /margerine
2 c  Sugar
1/2 c  Milk
5    6 Tbls. Cocoa powder
2 ts Vanilla
2    3 cups oats
1 c  Shreaded coconut.

In a saucepan, boil (2 1/2 min.) butter, sugar, milk, & cocoa. Remove
from heat. Add vanilla, oats, and cocoanut (Stir it in quickly!) Drop
on wax paper to harden– appx. 1/2 hour.

**note** Try NOT to eat all of the batter before it cools. The result
is a tummy ache that disturbs the full enjoyment of the finished
product (at least for an hour.) And you would have to make more
batter!!!!
