Ingredients

1/2 cup unsalted butter
3/4 cup sugar
3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 cup milk
1/8 teaspoon kosher salt
3/4 cup chunky peanut butter
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 cups quick oats (aka 1 minute oats)

Instructions

In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter then whisk in the sugar, cocoa, milk and salt. Turn the heat to high and boil mixture for 1 minute or until thickened. Remove from the heat.
Stir the peanut butter and vanilla into the chocolate. Add the oats and stir until well combined.
Using a small ice cream scoop or a 1 tablespoon measure, form dough into cookies (they can be flattened into cookies or into balls) and place on parchment paper to cool.
Allow to cool 30 - 45 minutes. Or stick in the freezer to speed up cooling time.
