Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or wax paper. Set aside.
In a medium saucepan, combine the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, cocoa powder, and milk.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and stir frequently until the butter melts and the mixture comes to a boil.
Once boiling, allow the mixture to boil for exactly 1 minute, stirring occasionally to prevent burning. This step is crucial for the cookies to set properly.
Remove the saucepan from heat and immediately stir in the peanut butter, vanilla extract, and salt until fully incorporated.
Quickly add the quick-cooking oats to the mixture and stir thoroughly until the oats are well coated and evenly distributed.
Using a spoon or small cookie scoop, drop spoonfuls of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing the cookies apart slightly.
Allow the cookies to cool at room temperature for about 30 minutes, or until they are set and firm to the touch.
Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days, or in the refrigerator for a slightly firmer texture.
