Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- 0.25 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.5 cup whole milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.75 cup creamy peanut butter
- 3 cups old-fashioned oats
- 0.125 teaspoon salt
Instructions
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or wax paper. Set aside.
In a medium saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat.
Add the granulated sugar, unsweetened cocoa powder, and whole milk to the melted butter. Stir until well combined.
Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, stirring constantly. Allow it to boil for 1 minute to properly dissolve the sugar.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and immediately stir in the vanilla extract, creamy peanut butter, and salt. Mix until the peanut butter is fully melted and incorporated.
Add the old-fashioned oats to the saucepan and stir until all the oats are evenly coated with the chocolate mixture.
Using a cookie scoop or a tablespoon, drop portions of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet. Flatten slightly with the back of the spoon if desired.
Let the cookies cool at room temperature for about 30 minutes, or until they are firm.
Once set, transfer the cookies to an airtight container for storage. They can be kept at room temperature for up to 5 days or refrigerated for a firmer texture.
