Ingredients
- 3 Cups quick cooking oats
- 1 Cup shredded coconut
- 0.5 Cup crunchy peanut butter
- 1 Tablespoon vanilla extract
- 2 Cups white sugar
- 0.5 Cup milk
- 0.5 Cup butter, melted
- 3 Tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 Pinch cooking spray, to taste
Steps
- Line two rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper. In a large bowl, stir together the oats, coconut, peanut butter, and vanilla extract until well combined using a spatula.
- In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the sugar, milk, melted butter, and cocoa powder. Stir occasionally and bring the mixture to a boil. Once boiling, stir constantly and boil for no longer than 90 to 120 seconds to avoid crumbly cookies. Remove from heat and pour over the oat mixture, stirring until well combined.
- Drop large scoops of the batter onto the prepared baking sheets. Spray the back of a spoon with cooking spray and use it to flatten the scoops, respraying as needed. Let the cookies cool to room temperature before serving.
