No Bake Peanut Butter Chocolate Cookies

Step 1

Pre-measure all of your ingredients and have them ready, as you will have to move quickly once the Chocolate is melted.

Step 2

Melt your Chocolate in a large glass bowl, using either the microwave or double-boiler method. If you are using the former, Microwave the Chocolate for 1 minute, stir, then continue to microwave at 20-second intervals, stirring with a spatula in between each time. Once the chocolate is 80% melted, stop microwaving and stir rapidly until all remaining pieces have melted.

Step 3

Add the Peanut Butter, Salt, and optional Vanilla Extract to the Chocolate, stirring rapidly. The Chocolate will immediately start to thicken, so move quickly! Once everything is well incorporated, add in the Rolled Oats and continue to mix until they are evenly distributed.

Step 4

Use a large cookie scoop (or your hands) to form 10 even cookies – each one will have about 1/4 cup of “batter.” Let cool completely to allow the Chocolate to harden, then serve as desired! Cover the leftovers and store at room temperature for up to 6 days.
