Easy No Bake Cookies

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 3 cups quick oats
  • 1/2 cup peanut butter
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions:

  1. In a medium saucepan, combine the sugar, cocoa powder, milk, and butter. Bring this mixture to a rolling boil over medium heat, stirring constantly. Once it reaches a boil, let it cook for 1 minute without stirring. Trust me, timing is everything!
  2. Remove the saucepan from heat. Stir in the peanut butter and vanilla extract until smooth. The mix should be glossy and inviting.
  3. Next, fold in the oats, making sure every single oat is coated in that chocolatey goodness.
  4. Using a spoon, drop spoonfuls of the mixture onto a waxed paper-lined baking sheet. You can make them as big or as small as you like. Just keep in mind they will be a bit sticky, so sprinkle some patience on those cookies!
  5. Let them cool at room temperature until they’re set. This usually takes about 30 minutes. You can probably say it’ll be the longest half hour of your life, but trust me – it will be worth it!
