Description
No Bake Preacher Cookies are a cherished treat that combine the rich flavors of chocolate and peanut butter with the wholesome goodness of oats. These delightful cookies are not only easy to make but also require no baking, making them a perfect choice for those who may not have the time or inclination to preheat an oven.
Ingredients
Scale:
2 cups rolled oats
1 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 cup unsalted butter
1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
1/4 cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the granulated sugar, cocoa powder, and milk. Stir continuously until the mixture comes to a rolling boil, ensuring that all ingredients are well combined.
Once boiling, let it cook for 1 minute without stirring. This step is crucial as it allows the sugar to caramelize slightly, giving your cookies a rich flavor.
Remove the saucepan from heat. Immediately stir in the peanut butter and vanilla extract until fully combined and smooth.
Fold in the rolled oats until the mixture is well coated.
Using a tablespoon or a cookie scoop, drop spoonfuls of the mixture onto wax paper or a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Allow the cookies to cool at room temperature for about 30 minutes, or until they are set.
