No-Bake Peanut Butter Oatmeal Cookies 🍪🥜Recipe

Ingredients:
1/2 cup salted butter, cut into pieces
1 1/2 cups sugar
1/2 cup milk
1 cup creamy peanut butter
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 cups quick-cooking oats
1/2 cup Reese’s Pieces
Directions:
Prepare Baking Sheets:
Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
Heat Mixture:
2. In a medium saucepan, heat the butter, sugar, and milk over medium heat until the mixture comes to a rolling boil (the entire surface should be full of vigorous bubbles). Stir frequently while it is coming to a boil.
3. Once you get a full rolling boil, set a timer for 60 seconds. Do not stir during this time period.
Add Ingredients:
4. Once the 60 seconds are up, turn off the heat and stir in the peanut butter and vanilla until smooth.
5. Stir in the oats until well combined.
Form Cookies:
6. Using a 1/4 cup measuring cup, scoop up the dough and drop it onto the prepared baking sheets.
7. Press a few Reese’s Pieces onto the top of each cookie.
Set Cookies:
8. Allow the cookies to set up for at least 30 minutes before serving.
Tip: Do a test cookie first. If the dough spreads out too much, let it cool for a minute or two before scooping out the remaining cookies.
