- 0.25 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.5 cup peanut butter
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 3 cups quick oats

Directions
Step 1
Prepare a large baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper or wax paper.
Step 2
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, milk, and unsweetened cocoa powder.
Step 3
Stir frequently until the butter melts and the mixture comes to a gentle boil.
Step 4
Allow the mixture to boil for 1 minute while stirring continuously to prevent burning.
Step 5
Remove the saucepan from heat and immediately stir in the peanut butter, vanilla extract, and salt until smooth and well combined.
Step 6
Add the quick oats to the mixture and stir until the oats are fully coated and evenly incorporated.
Step 7
Using a cookie scoop or two spoons, drop spoonfuls of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, forming cookie-like shapes.
Step 8
Let the cow pies sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes to firm up or refrigerate them for faster setting.
Step 9
Once set, serve and enjoy! Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature or in the refrigerator.
