Description

Quick, delicious, and oven-freeโ€”these Easy No Bake Cookies are the perfect treat for when you want something sweet without the hassle of baking.


Ingredients

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


Instructions

  1. In a medium saucepan, combine sugar, butter, and milk. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly.
  2. Once boiling, let the mixture cook for 1โ€“2 minutes, then remove from heat.
  3. Stir in cocoa powder, peanut butter, vanilla, and salt until smooth.
  4. Add oats and mix well until fully coated.
  5. Drop spoonfuls of the mixture onto parchment or wax paper.
  6. Let cookies cool at room temperature for 30 minutes or refrigerate until firm.

Notes

Boil the mixture long enough for cookies to set properly. Use natural peanut butter for a smoother texture. Add chocolate chips, nuts, or coconut for extra flavor.
