In a medium saucepan, combine the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, milk, and cocoa powder.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and stir constantly until the mixture comes to a boil.
Once the mixture is boiling, let it boil for 1 minute while stirring continuously, then remove it from the heat.
Stir in the vanilla extract, salt, and peanut butter (if using), mixing until fully incorporated.
Add the rolled oats to the mixture and stir until well coated. Let the mixture cool slightly, about 2-3 minutes.
Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips gently. The mixture should be warm enough to melt the chips slightly while still retaining some of their shape.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or wax paper.
Use a tablespoon or cookie scoop to drop spoonfuls of the cookie mixture onto the prepared baking sheet.
Let the cookies cool at room temperature for about 30 minutes, or until they are fully set.
Once set, transfer the cookies to an airtight container for storage or enjoy immediately!
