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 quick-cooking oats
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
Instructions
In a large, heavy-bottomed pot, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat.
Add the granulated sugar, unsweetened cocoa powder, and whole milk to the pot. Stir well to combine.
Bring the mixture to a rolling boil and let it boil for exactly 1 minute. Stir frequently to prevent burning.
Remove the pot from heat and quickly stir in the vanilla extract, creamy peanut butter, and salt until smooth and fully incorporated.
Add the quick-cooking oats to the pot and mix thoroughly until all the oats are evenly coated in the chocolate mixture.
Using a tablespoon, drop spoonfuls of the mixture onto wax paper or parchment paper. Flatten slightly with the back of the spoon if desired.
Allow the cookies to cool and set at room temperature for about 20–30 minutes, or until firm.
Once set, transfer the cookies to an airtight container for storage or enjoy immediately!
