🍫 No Bake Cookies

Ingredients

• 2 cups sugar
• 4 Tbsp cocoa
• ½ cup milk
• ¼ lb (1 stick) butter
• 1 tsp vanilla
• ½ cup peanut butter
• 3 cups oatmeal

Instructions

1. In a saucepan, combine 2 cups sugar, 4 Tbsp cocoa, ½ cup milk, and ¼ lb butter.

2. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly. Boil for 1 minute.

3. Remove from heat immediately.

4. Stir in 1 tsp vanilla, ½ cup peanut butter, and 3 cups oatmeal until well combined.

5. Drop by spoonfuls onto wax paper or a silicone mat.

6. Let cool and set at room temperature (about 30 minutes).

Tips

• The 1-minute boil is critical—too short and cookies won’t set, too long and they’ll be dry and crumbly.
• Work quickly once you add the oats; the mixture sets fast.
• Use quick oats for smoother texture, old-fashioned for more chew.
• Store in an airtight container at room temperature.
