Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- 0.25 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.5 cup whole milk
- 0.5 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3 cups quick oats
- 1 pinch pinch of salt
Instructions
Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats and set aside.
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Once melted, add the granulated sugar, cocoa powder, and milk.
Stir constantly until the mixture comes to a rolling boil. Allow it to boil for 1 minute without stirring.
Remove the saucepan from heat and quickly stir in the peanut butter, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt until fully combined.
Add the quick oats to the mixture and stir until the oats are evenly coated.
Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, drop spoonfuls of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheets.
Allow the cookies to cool and set at room temperature for about 20-30 minutes, or place them in the refrigerator to speed up the process.
Once set, enjoy your delicious no-bake cookies! Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days or in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
