Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- 1 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1.5 cups creamy peanut butter
- 4 cups quick oats
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
Instructions
Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or wax paper and set aside.
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter.
Once the butter is melted, stir in the granulated sugar, milk, and salt. Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring frequently.
Allow the mixture to boil for 1 minute while stirring constantly, then remove the saucepan from heat.
Immediately stir in the vanilla extract, creamy peanut butter, and quick oats until the mixture is fully combined.
Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, drop spoonfuls of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheets. Flatten the tops lightly with the back of the spoon if desired.
Let the cookies set at room temperature for about 30 minutes, or place the baking sheets in the refrigerator to speed up the setting process.
Once the cookies are firm, serve and enjoy! Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature or in the refrigerator for up to one week.
