Peanut Butter No-Bake Cookies

Ingredients

  • 1½ cups granulated sugar
  • ½ cup butter
  • ½ cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 cup peanut butter
  • 2½ cups quick oats

Instructions

  • In a medium saucepan over medium high heat, combine sugar, butter, and milk.
  • Bring to a rapid boil and boil for 2 minutes and 30 seconds (SET A TIMER!) stirring continuously.*
  • Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla and the peanut butter. Stir in the oats until well blended then immediately drop by tablespoons onto waxed paper. Let cool until set. This takes a while, so hands-off for about 30 minutes! :)

Notes

Set a timer: Boil for exactly 2 minutes and 30 seconds, stirring the whole time.
Weather matters: Humid or rainy days can keep them from setting, so they may need more time. I’ve made them many times, and every now and then a batch turns out a little too dry or too soft.
Hands off: Give them about 30 minutes to set before you move them.
Storage: Keep them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week.
