Ingredients
- 115 grams Unsalted butter
- 200 grams Granulated sugar
- 50 grams Brown sugar (packed)
- 30 grams Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 60 milliliters Whole milk
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 250 grams Rolled oats (old-fashioned oats)
- 125 grams Peanut butter (creamy or crunchy)
Directions
Step 1
In a medium saucepan, combine the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, unsweetened cocoa powder, and milk over medium heat.
Step 2
Constantly stir the mixture until the butter is melted and sugars are dissolved. Bring to a gentle boil and let it cook for 1 minute, continuing to stir.
Step 3
Remove the saucepan from heat, then stir in the vanilla extract and salt.
Step 4
Add the peanut butter to the warm chocolate mixture and stir until the peanut butter is fully melted and incorporated.
Step 5
Add the rolled oats to the saucepan and stir until evenly coated with the chocolate mixture.
Step 6
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Use a spoon or small cookie scoop to drop spoonfuls of the mixture onto the prepared sheet. Aim for about 1.5-inch rounds.
Step 7
Let the Chocolate Oat Drops cool at room temperature for 20–30 minutes or until fully set. For faster setting, place the baking sheet in the refrigerator for 10–15 minutes.
Step 8
Once set, transfer the drops to an airtight container for storage. They can be kept at room temperature for up to 5 days or refrigerated for longer freshness.
