Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Unsalted butter
- 2 cups Granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup Whole milk
- 0.25 cup Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Creamy peanut butter
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 3 cups Quick-cooking oats
Instructions
Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or wax paper and set aside.
In a medium saucepan, combine the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, whole milk, unsweetened cocoa powder, and salt.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and stir continuously until the mixture begins to boil.
Once boiling, allow the mixture to cook for 60 seconds without stirring. Be sure not to overcook, as this will affect the consistency of the cookies.
Remove the saucepan from heat and immediately stir in the creamy peanut butter and vanilla extract until fully incorporated.
Add the quick-cooking oats to the saucepan and stir until the oats are evenly coated with the chocolate mixture.
Using a spoon or cookie scoop, drop spoonfuls of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving space between each cookie.
Let the cookies cool at room temperature for about 30 minutes or until they are firm and set.
Once set, serve and enjoy your no-bake Preacher Cookies, or store them in an airtight container for up to one week.
