Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 cup Butter
- 2 cups Granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup Milk
- 0.25 cup Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.5 cup Peanut butter
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 3 cups Quick oats
- 1 pinch Pinch of salt
Instructions
In a medium-sized saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat.
Add the granulated sugar, milk, and unsweetened cocoa powder to the saucepan. Stir until fully combined.
Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring frequently. Allow it to boil for 1 minute without stirring to ensure it reaches the proper consistency.
Remove the saucepan from heat and quickly stir in the peanut butter, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt until smooth and fully incorporated.
Gradually fold in the quick oats, stirring thoroughly to combine all ingredients. The mixture should be thick and slightly sticky.
Using a spoon or cookie scoop, drop the mixture onto wax paper or parchment paper-lined baking sheets in small mounds. Shape them slightly if necessary.
Let the Raggedy Robins cool and set at room temperature for about 20-30 minutes, or refrigerate for faster setting.
Once firm, enjoy your delectable treats! Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature or in the refrigerator for up to one week.
