Main Ingredients
- 6 tablespoons butter
- 2 cups cane sugar
- 1/2 cup chocolate milk
- 1/4 cup cocoa powder
- 3/4 cup Cookie Dough Granola Butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3 cups cooking oats
Instructions
- Prepare the chocolate syrup: Heat a saucepan over medium heat and add the butter, cane sugar, chocolate milk, and cocoa powder. Stir continuously allowing the butter to melt completely and the sugar to fully dissolve. Whisk together until the mixture becomes a smooth, rich chocolate syrup.
- Add granola butter and vanilla: Stir in the cookie dough granola butter and vanilla extract, continuing to whisk. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, then remove the pan from heat to prevent burning.
- Mix in the oats: Pour the cooking oats into the saucepan and stir thoroughly to ensure every oat flake is coated evenly with the chocolate syrup mixture.
- Form the cookies: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Use a cookie scooper to drop spoonfuls of the oat mixture onto the sheet, forming individual cookies. If your kitchen is warm or humid, place the sheet in the refrigerator to help the cookies set properly.
- Chill and set: Let the cookies chill in the refrigerator for 1-2 hours until firm and set. Once solidified, they are ready to enjoy.
Notes
- Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for 5-7 days or refrigerate for up to 2 weeks.
- For longer storage, freeze the cookies in a sealed bag for up to 3 months.
- If your cookies do not set properly, ensure the butter is fully melted and the sugar is completely dissolved as per the recipe.
- You can use refined coconut oil instead of butter and nut milk instead of chocolate milk to make this recipe dairy-free.
