Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or wax paper and set aside.
In a medium-sized saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat.
Add the granulated sugar, milk, and unsweetened cocoa powder to the saucepan. Stir well to combine.
Bring the mixture to a rolling boil and allow it to boil for exactly 1 minute. Stir constantly to prevent burning.
Remove the saucepan from heat and immediately stir in the peanut butter, vanilla extract, and salt. Mix until smooth and well combined.
Add the quick-cooking oats to the mixture and stir until all the oats are fully coated in the chocolate mixture.
Using a spoon or cookie scoop, drop spoonfuls of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheets. Flatten slightly to form cookie shapes if desired.
Allow the cookies to cool and set for 30-45 minutes at room temperature, or refrigerate for quicker setting.
Once set, serve and enjoy! Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature or in the fridge for up to one week.
