Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups sugar
- 6 tablespoons butter cubed
- 6 tablespoons milk
- 3/4 cup peanut butter
- 2 1/4 cups quick cooking oats also called 1 minute oats
- 1 cup coated peanut butter candies
Instructions
- Place the sugar, butter and milk in a saucepot over medium heat. Stir until butter is melted. Bring to a boil and boil for 1 minute exactly.
- Remove the pot from the heat and stir in the peanut butter until smooth. Add the oats and stir until thoroughly combined.
- Drop 2 tablespoon sized dollops of the dough onto parchment paper, waxed paper or a silicon nonstick baking mat. Quickly press the candies onto the tops of the cookies.
- Cool completely until cookies are set. Cookies may be stored at room temperature in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
Notes
- Be sure you’re standing at the stove watching because this mixture needs to cook for exactly one minute. If you overcook the sugar mixture the cookies might turn out crumbly.
- This recipe calls for quick oats, which can also be called 1 minute oats. Do not use rolled oats, as the texture will be overly chewy.
