These no bake chocolate peanut butter oatmeal cookies are a step above the rest! They’re so irresistible, everyone will ask for the recipe.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/4 cup dark chocolate or Dutch process cocoa powder
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 4 tablespoons salted butter
  • 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1/8 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 3 cups Old Fashioned rolled oats

Instructions

  1. Place all ingredients except the oats in a medium saucepan and bring it to a boil.
  2. Once it starts rapidly bubbling, set a timer for 1 minute. Stirring continuously with a spatula, boil for 1 minute. Then immediately remove from the heat and stir in the oats.
  3. Make 1 1/2 tablespoon-sized scoops (using a size 40 cookie scoop, if you have it) and them place onto a parchment lined baking sheet. Flatten them with a buttered spoon, or press gently with your fingers. (Flavor variations: Top them with flaky sea salt, or toasted coconut and flaky sea salt for a Samoa flavor.)
  4. Freeze the cookies for 10 minutes. Then store refrigerated for up to 3 weeks.
