Ingredients
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter (1 stick)
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 3 tablespoon cocoa
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- Dash salt
- 3/4 cup chunky peanut butter
- 3 cups quick oats
Instructions
- Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Whisk in sugar, cocoa, milk and salt. Turn up heat and bring mixture to a full rolling boil for 1 minute. Remove from heat.
- Stir the chunky peanut butter and vanilla into the chocolate mixture.
- Add quick oats to the pan; mix all ingredients together till well combined.
- Form the mixture into small cookies (a heaping tablespoon of batter each) and lay them on wax or parchment paper to cool. Shape them like rough, flat haystacks-- they don't need to look perfect, that's part of the charm.
- Cookies will set in 30-45 minutes.
