Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups granulated sugar
- ½ cup milk
- ½ cup unsalted butter
- ¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- ¾ cup peanut butter smooth or crunchy
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 3 cups quick cooking oats
Instructions
- Line 2 cookie sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large saucepan over medium heat, combine the sugar, milk, butter and cocoa. Stir until the butter is melted.
- Bring the mixture to a full boil and allow it boil for 90 seconds (I highly recommend setting a timer). Immediately remove the pan from heat.
- Add in the peanut butter and vanilla and stir until the peanut butter is melted.
- Add oats and stir to fully incorporate.
- Using a medium cookie scoop (about 1 1/2 tablespoons), drop cookies onto prepared baking sheets. If desired, use a spoon, or the bottom of a glass to slightly flatten and shape into round cookies.
- Allow cookies to set before serving.
Notes
- For this recipe, I recommend using a peanut butter like Jif. Using a natural-style peanut butter will not allow the cookies to set up properly.
- Be sure to use quick oats in this recipe. They're a bit thinner than rolled oats and will give your cookies the perfect texture.
- You can easily make these cookies gluten-free by using certified gluten-free oats.
- Cookies can be stored in an airtight container within the refrigerator for up to 3 days. I actually love them chilled!
