Ingredients
- 0.5 cup Butter
- 1 cup Granulated sugar
- 0.25 cup Milk
- 2 tablespoons Cocoa powder
- 0.5 cup Peanut butter
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 2 cups Shredded sweetened coconut

Instructions
In a medium-sized saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat.
Stir in the granulated sugar, milk, and cocoa powder until fully combined and smooth.
Bring the mixture to a rolling boil, stirring constantly, for about 90 seconds. Remove the saucepan from heat.
Add the peanut butter and vanilla extract to the saucepan, stirring until the peanut butter melts and is fully incorporated.
Fold in the shredded coconut and quick oats until everything is evenly mixed.
Using a spoon, drop the mixture onto a parchment-lined baking sheet in mounds, shaping them gently into dome shapes to resemble small mountains.
Allow the cookies to cool and set at room temperature for about 1 to 2 hours or place them in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to firm up.
