Ingredients

The following ingredients have 18 Servings
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter ((1 stick))
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 3 tablespoon cocoa
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • Dash salt
  • 3/4 cup chunky peanut butter
  • 3 cups quick oats

Instruction

  • Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Whisk in sugar, cocoa, milk and salt. Turn up heat and bring mixture to a full rolling boil for 1 minute. Remove from heat.
  • Stir the chunky peanut butter and vanilla into the chocolate mixture.
  • Add quick oats to the pan; mix all ingredients together till well combined.
  • Form the mixture into small cookies (a heaping tablespoon of batter each) and lay them on wax or parchment paper to cool. Shape them like rough, flat haystacks-- they don't need to look perfect, that's part of the charm.
  • Cookies will set in 30-45 minutes.
