  • cups granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup salted butter
  • 1/2 cup whole milk
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/2 cup crunchy peanut butter
  • 3 cups old fashioned rolled oats
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Instructions

  • Line 2baking sheets with a silicone mat, parchment or wax paper.
  • In a medium saucepan; add the sugar, butter, cocoa powder and milk. Stir and bring up to a rolling boil. The second it reaches that rolling boil, start a timer for 1 minute and 30 seconds, carefully keep stirring.
  • When the time is up, remove from the heat and add in the oats and peanut butter. Mix until the peanut butter is melted and all the ingredients are combined. Lastly add in the vanilla.
  • Using a rounded scoop and measure out each cookie and place onto the prepared pans. I gently press the scoop on the top of each cookie to slightly flatten.
  • Let cool for 30 minutes to an hour or until they've solidified and can be easily removed using a spatula. Store in an airtight container.
