Instructions
-
Line a baking sheet with parchment and set to the side.
-
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the sugar, butter, milk, and cocoa powder. Cook until the sugar and butter are melted, stirring to combine. Bring the mixture to a boil, and then continue to boil for 1 minute.
-
Pour the mixture into a large mixing bowl and stir in the peanut butter, vanilla, and salt. Stir in the rolled oats.
-
Using a medium cookie scoop, scoop and place the cookie dough on the lined parchment baking sheet.
Peanut Butter Drizzle (optional):
-
Melt the peanut butter and coconut oil together in the microwave for 30 seconds. Stir to combine, then drizzle over the cookies using a spoon. Skip this drizzle if planning to pack up the cookies for eating on the go; the drizzle softens a little when the cookies are at room temperature, which can make them a little messy when eating on the go.
-
Refrigerate for 20 minutes to firm up the cookies and set the drizzle. Transfer to an airtight container.
-
Cookies will keep for about a week at room temperature, or a month if refrigerated. If there is peanut butter drizzle, keep refrigerated so the drizzle stays firm.
