| I loved these as a child. In fact, I am pretty sure they were the first sweet I ever made myself, around age 9. The cookies take all of 10 minutes to make, and they are so satisfying - chocolatey and chewy, sort of fudge meets oatmeal cookie.
You can use any milk, but I use evaporated because that is what I grew up with. I also used quick-cook oats as a child, but now I only have old fashioned oats in the house, and have found they work great.
