Description

Indulge in the creamy, nutty goodness of these Peanut Butter No Bake Cookies. With just a handful of simple ingredients and no oven required, these sweet treats are quick to make and even quicker to disappear.


Ingredients

Scale

For the cookies:

  • 2 cups granulated sugar
  • ½ cup unsalted butter
  • ½ cup whole milk
  • ½ cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3 cups quick-cooking oats
  • ¼ teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. In a medium saucepan, combine the sugar, butter, and milk. Stir constantly over medium heat until the mixture comes to a full rolling boil.
  2. Boil for 1 minute, then remove from heat. Quickly stir in the peanut butter, vanilla extract, salt, and oats until fully combined.

  3. Drop spoonfuls of the mixture onto parchment-lined baking sheets, flattening slightly if desired.
  4. Allow the cookies to cool and set at room temperature for about 30 minutes before serving.

Notes

  • For a richer flavor, use natural peanut butter.
  • You can substitute quick oats with rolled oats for a chewier texture.
  • Add mini chocolate chips or chopped peanuts for variation.
