Ingredients

• 0.5 cup Unsalted butter
• 2 cups Granulated sugar
• 0.25 cup Unsweetened cocoa powder
• 0.5 cup Whole milk
• 0.75 cup Creamy peanut butter
• 1 teaspoon Pure vanilla extract
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 3 cups Quick-cooking oats

Directions

Step 1

In a medium saucepan, combine the butter, granulated sugar, cocoa powder, and milk.

Step 2

Place the saucepan over medium heat and stir frequently until the butter has melted and the ingredients are well combined.

Step 3

Bring the mixture to a gentle boil while stirring occasionally. Let it boil for 1 minute. (Do not skip this step as it helps the cookies set properly later.)

Step 4

Remove the saucepan from heat and immediately stir in the peanut butter, vanilla extract, and salt until smooth and fully incorporated.

Step 5

Add the quick-cooking oats to the saucepan and mix thoroughly until all oats are evenly coated with the chocolate mixture.

Step 6

Using a spoon or a cookie scoop, drop portions of the mixture onto a parchment-lined baking sheet, forming individual cookies. Work quickly as the mixture can harden as it cools.

Step 7

Allow the cookies to cool and set at room temperature for about 30-60 minutes, or place them in the refrigerator for faster setting.

Step 8

Once firm, transfer the cookies to an airtight container for storage. Enjoy your no-bake cookies!
