Directions
Step 1
Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or wax paper, and set aside.
Step 2
In a medium saucepan, combine the butter, sugar, milk, and cocoa powder.
Step 3
Place the saucepan over medium heat and stir continuously until the butter is melted and the mixture comes to a full boil.
Step 4
Once boiling, let the mixture boil for exactly 1 minute, stirring occasionally to prevent scorching.
Step 5
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the peanut butter, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt until fully combined and smooth.
Step 6
Add the quick oats to the mixture and stir until the oats are completely coated and evenly distributed.
Step 7
Using a tablespoon or small cookie scoop, drop spoonfuls of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheets, forming mounds.
Step 8
Allow the drops to cool and set at room temperature for about 30 minutes, or place them in the refrigerator for faster setting.
Step 9
Once firm, store the chocolate peanut butter drops in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days or in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
