Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 cups unsalted butter
- 1.5 cups granulated sugar
- 0.25 cups unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.5 cups whole milk
- 0.75 cups creamy peanut butter
- 1 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 3 cups quick-cooking oats
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
Instructions
Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or wax paper and set aside.
In a medium saucepan, combine the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, unsweetened cocoa powder, and whole milk.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and stir continuously until the butter melts and the mixture begins to boil.
Once it reaches a boil, let it cook for 1 minute while stirring gently, then remove the saucepan from heat.
Quickly add the creamy peanut butter, pure vanilla extract, and salt to the saucepan and stir until the mixture is well combined and smooth.
Add the quick-cooking oats and stir until the oats are fully coated with the chocolate mixture.
Using a spoon or cookie scoop, drop tablespoon-sized portions of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheets. Leave a bit of space between each cookie.
Let the cookies cool and set at room temperature for about 30 minutes, or until firm.
Once set, transfer the cookies to an airtight container for storage or enjoy immediately!
