These No-Bake Peanut Butter Chocolate Cookies Taste Just Like a Reese’s Cup (I Can’t Stop Making Them!)
I can’t think of a better combo than peanut butter and chocolate. That’s why I always have a big jar of peanut butter and all types of chocolate in my pantry whenever that craving hits. Sometimes I’ll make a quick midday snack, and sometimes I’ll bake a cake. I’m also a huge fan of no-bake desserts that are quick and easy to make, like peanut butter cup Rice Krispies treats (they’re stuffed with Reese’s cups!), no-bake peanut butter bars (only five ingredients!), and chocolate peanut butter slice-and-no-bake cookies (with pretzels!). But the one recipe that I keep going back to — classic no-bake cookies made with oats, peanut butter, and chocolate — is so good, I make them on repeat.

What Makes These No-Bake Peanut Butter Chocolate Cookies So Good
With just seven ingredients that use pantry staples like old-fashioned rolled oats, peanut butter, sugar, and cocoa powder, you can whip these up any time. If you’ve struggled with no-bake cookies in the past, this easy recipe is for you. Getting the right temperature is the key, and that’s where a candy thermometer comes in handy. It’s the foolproof way to get the best results each and every time. No more guessing!
The cookies only take a few minutes to make on the stovetop, and honestly the hardest part is waiting for them to cool completely. They’re perfectly chewy, with a creamy fudge-like texture that’s so irresistible, you’ll want to make them for every occasion (does a Wednesday night count?).
