Author Coco and Ash

Ingredients

  • 1 and ½ cups white sugar
  • ½ cup salted butter
  • ¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • ½ cup milk
  • ¾ cup peanut butter (either smooth or crunchy is fine)
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 3 and ¼ cups quick cook oats

Instructions

  • Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper
  • Add the sugar, butter, cocoa, and milk to a large saucepan and heat over medium high heat. 
  • As soon as the mixture comes to a boil, set a time for 90 seconds and boil while stirring. After the 90 seconds, remove the pan from the heat. 
  • Add in the peanut butter and vanilla extract and stir until completely combined. 
  • Add in the oats and stir again to combine. 
  • Using a golfball size cookie scoop, scoop the mixture onto the parchment paper. I like to use my fingers to flatten the scoops a little bit but that's just preference. Let cool for at least 30 minutes until completely cooled and set.
