Prepare a large baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper or wax paper and set it aside.
In a medium saucepan, combine the sugar, unsweetened cocoa powder, unsalted butter, and milk.
Heat the mixture over medium heat, stirring constantly until the butter melts and the ingredients combine into a smooth mixture.
Bring the mixture to a boil and let it boil for 1 minute, stirring occasionally to prevent burning.
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the peanut butter, vanilla extract, and salt until fully combined.
Add the quick oats to the saucepan and stir until the oats are evenly coated with the chocolate mixture.
Using a spoon or small cookie scoop, drop rounded spoonfuls of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet.
Let the cookies cool at room temperature until they are firm, about 30-45 minutes. For faster setting, place the baking sheet in the refrigerator for 15-20 minutes.
Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week or freeze for longer storage.
