2 tsp vanilla

Place the saucepan on the stove and turn the heat to medium. Stir everything until well blended, then allow the mixture to boil for 40 seconds. Remove the pan from the heat.

Spoon the mixture and drop each onto wax paper. Arrange them in a single layer.
Place the wax paper inside the fridge and allow the cookies to chill until fully set. You can also let them rest at room temperature if you want.
