Notes
Measure your ingredients ahead of time. Before starting the boiling process, measure out your oats, vanilla, and peanut butter and set aside. You can then quickly and easily add them when ready.Make sure to get your butter mixture to a rolling boil before counting to 60 seconds. Little bubbles around the edges of the pan are not enough. You need to get it hot enough so that the cookies will harden.Make ahead the cookies to freeze for the future. Once hardened, store in an air tighter container in the freezer for up to 3 months.
