Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Unsalted butter
- 2 cups Granulated sugar
- 0.25 cup Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.5 cup Whole milk
- 0.5 cup Creamy peanut butter
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 3 cups Quick-cooking oats
- 1 pinch Pinch of salt
Instructions
Prepare a large sheet of wax paper or parchment paper and set aside for the cookies to cool.
In a medium-sized saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat.
Once the butter is fully melted, add sugar, cocoa powder, and milk to the saucepan. Stir until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
Bring the mixture to a rolling boil and let it boil for 1 minute, stirring continuously to avoid burning.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the peanut butter, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt until completely incorporated.
Gradually add the quick-cooking oats to the mixture, stirring constantly until the oats are evenly coated and the base is thickened.
Using a tablespoon or small cookie scoop, drop spoonfuls of the mixture onto the prepared wax or parchment paper to form cookies.
Allow the cookies to cool and set at room temperature for 20-30 minutes before serving.
Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
