Chocolate Peanut Butter No Bake Cookies
These Chocolate Peanut Butter No Bake Cookies are a sweet, quick, and easy homemade dessert combining rich chocolate and creamy peanut butter without any baking required!
Ingredients
- ½ cup unsalted butter
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- ½ cup whole milk
- ¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 3 cups quick-cooking oats
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ¼ teaspoon fine salt
Instructions
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set out a medium saucepan, wooden spoon, and cookie scoop for smooth workflow.
- Over medium heat, melt butter, then whisk in sugar, milk, and cocoa powder until the mixture is completely smooth and lump-free.
- Allow the mixture to reach a full, rolling boil and maintain it for one minute, stirring occasionally to prevent scorching.
- Remove the pan from heat and stir in the peanut butter and vanilla extract until the mixture turns glossy and uniform.
- Sprinkle in the oats and salt, then fold gently until every oat is coated and the dough pulls away from the sides of the pan.
- Drop heaping tablespoons of dough onto the prepared sheet, spacing cookies about 2 inches apart; use a cookie scoop or two spoons.
- Refrigerate for 20 minutes or until cookies are firm; gently press each cookie with a spoon after 5 minutes for an extra smooth top.
Notes
Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
