No-bake cookies

Miggy, again, this one's for you. My mom used to make these every time it was her turn to provide dessert for my Girl Scout meetings. Speaking of which, who is it that's going to be our Girl Scout Cookie hook-up this year?

Chocolate Oatmeal No-Bake Cookies
2 c. sugar
1/2 c. cocoa
1/2 c. milk
1 stick margarine
pinch salt
3 c. oats
1 c. chopped pecans
1 tsp. vanilla

Mix first five ingredients in a pan and bring to a gentle boil, stirring often. Remove from fire and let stand for 5 minutes.

Add last three ingredients, mix well.

Using a spoon, drop balls onto waxed paper. Allow to cool overnight. Makes 4-5 dozen, depending on how much goop you eat as you spoon out the servings.
