  • ½ cup butter

  • 4 TBSP cocoa powder
  • 2 cups sugar
  • ½ cup peanut butter
  • 3 cups quick oats

Instructions

  • Microwave butter, milk, cocoa, and sugar in a large bowl on HIGH for 3 minutes.

Notes

They also freeze well for up to 2–3 months—just thaw at room temperature before enjoying to bring back that soft, chewy texture.
