- 2 cups granulated sugar
- ½ cup unsalted butter
- ½ cup whole milk
- ¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- ½ cup creamy peanut butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3 cups quick-cooking oats
- ¼ teaspoon salt
Instructions
- In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the sugar, butter, milk, and cocoa powder. Stir continuously until the mixture comes to a rolling boil.
- Drop spoonfuls of the mixture onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. Let the cookies sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes, or until firm and set.
Once boiling, allow it to boil for 60 seconds without stirring. Remove the pan from heat and quickly stir in the peanut butter, vanilla extract, salt, and oats. Mix until fully combined.
Notes
- Use quick oats for best texture.
- For a richer flavor, add a pinch of espresso powder to the chocolate mixture.
- You can also use chunky peanut butter for added crunch.
