No Bake Preacher Cookies
These No Bake Preacher Cookies bring together chocolate, peanut butter, and oats for a classic, no-fuss treat that sets up in under an hour—no oven required!
Ingredients
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter room temperature
- 1/2 cup whole milk (or dairy-free alternative)
- 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter (Jif or Skippy recommended)
- 3 cups quick oats gluten-free if needed
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Sea salt pinch
Instructions
- In a medium saucepan over medium heat, stir together sugar, butter, milk, and cocoa powder until smooth and bubbly along the edges.
- Bring to a rolling boil and maintain for 60 seconds, stirring constantly to prevent scorching.
- Remove from heat, stir in peanut butter, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt until fully combined.
- Mix in quick oats (and optional add-ins like shredded coconut or mini chips) until every flake is coated.
- Drop tablespoonfuls of mixture onto parchment-lined tray or counter, spacing them about 1–2 inches apart.
- Let cookies sit at room temperature for 10 minutes, then chill in the fridge for 30–45 minutes (or freeze for 15–20 minutes) until set.
Notes
For a chewy coconut version, substitute 1 cup of shredded coconut for the oats. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
