3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
Flaked coconut for rolling (optional)

Step 2: In small bowl, add 1/2 cup of flaked coconut; set aside.
Step 3: Combine sugar, butter, milk, and cocoa in 2-quart saucepan.
Step 4: Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until mixture comes to a full boil.
Step 5: Boil 1 minute. Remove from heat. Stir in oats mixture.
