No-Bake Peanut Butter Cookies – These cookies are soft, creamy, loaded with peanut butter flavour, no-bake, and only require 4 simple ingredients to make!
Guys, I have the most easiest cookie recipe for you today, and you are gonna LOVE it.
These cookies require no baking and only 4 simple ingredients. Yup. And they are so good!
Much like my other no-bake recipes, these cookies are packed full of flavour, and have an irresistible texture.
They are soft and creamy, with an added chewiness from the oats.
If you’ve tried and loved my 4-Ingredient Peanut Butter Cookies, then you need to make these. Right now.
Ingredients you’ll need
Here’s a list of ingredients you’ll need to make these cookies. You can find my recipe card at the bottom of this post for the complete list with their amounts.
- smooth peanut butter
- porridge oats
- icing/powdered sugar
- vanilla extract
Simple, right?
How to make No-Bake Peanut Butter Cookies
To make these no-bake cookies, simply combine all of the ingredients together in a large bowl. Shape the mixture into circles 2-inch (5cm) wide, 1/2-inch (1cm) thick.
TIP: I pressed my mixture into a cookie cutter for perfectly shaped circles.
Place the cookies onto a baking tray lined with parchment paper and store in the freezer until firm – about 30 minutes.
I drizzled my cookies with a little melted chocolate, but that is totally optional.
The printable recipe card with the FULL list of ingredients and instructions can be found at the bottom of this post.
NOTE: For best results, I highly recommend using the gram measurements (with a digital scale), rather than the cup measurements.
Cup measurements are simply not accurate enough, and I cannot guarantee the best results if you use them.
These No-Bake Peanut Butter Cookies are:
- super quick and easy to throw together
- deliciously soft and creamy
- LOADED with peanut butter flavour
- made from only 4 ingredients!
These cookies should be kept refrigerated in an airtight container. They will become too soft left at room temperature. You can also freeze them for up to 1 month, but they won’t last that long. 😉
