Ingredients

1/4 cup unsalted butter (56 grams)

1/4 cup milk (60 milliliters)

1 cup sugar (200 grams)

3 tablespoons cocoa powder (22 grams)

1/2 cup natural peanut butter (140 grams)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 1/2 cups rolled oats (135 grams)

2 tablespoons ground flax seed (12 grams)

1/4 teaspoon kosher salt

Directions

  1. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
  2. In a medium saucepan, combine the butter, milk, sugar and cocoa and bring to a boil over high heat. Boil for 2 minutes.
  3. Remove from the heat and stir in the peanut butter and vanilla until uniform. Add the oats, flax seed and salt and stir well to combine.
  4. Immediately drop about 24 rounded tablespoons onto the prepared baking sheets and allow the cookies to cool and set for about 15 minutes. The cookies will keep in a sealed container at room temperature for 1 week. If you’d like a chewier cookie, store in the fridge.

I’ve made these several batches and some of them came out crumbly, even though I used natural peanut butter. This last batch I used a little better quality natural peanut butter that you have to stir first, and they came out much chewier. I also use less sugar than it calls for. They are yummy any way they come out though!
