No-Bake Chocolate Peanut Butter Cookies Made With Cream - cooking recipe

Ingredients

8 tablespoons butter (1 stick)
1 1/2 cups packed light brown sugar
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
3 cups old fashioned oats (not quick-cooking)
1 cup dry roasted peanuts

Preparation

In large saucepan, melt butter over medium-high heat. Stir in brown sugar, cream, and cocoa; boil 1 minute.
Remove saucepan from heat, add peanut butter and vanilla, and stir until smooth. Stir in oats and peanuts.
Drop heaping tablespoonfuls of the batter onto wax paper-lined baking sheets, spacing 1 inch apart, and let cool until set, about 20 minutes.
Storage suggestion: Keep the cookies at room temperature, between sheets of wax paper in an airtight container, for up to 3 days.
