Krok za krokem

1. 1

   Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or wax paper.

   Přibližně 2 min

   Poznámka kuchaře: Have this ready before you start cooking, as the process moves quickly.

2. 2

   In a medium saucepan, combine the granulated sugar, whole milk, unsalted butter, and unsweetened cocoa powder.

   Přibližně 1 min

3. 3

   Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a full rolling boil, stirring occasionally to dissolve the sugar.

   Přibližně 3 min

   Poznámka kuchaře: A rolling boil is one that continues to bubble even when you stir it.

4. 4

   Once boiling, set a timer and let it boil for exactly 60 seconds while stirring constantly.

   Přibližně 1 min

   Poznámka kuchaře: Timing is crucial; boiling for too long can result in dry, crumbly cookies, while not boiling long enough can prevent them from setting.

5. 5

   Immediately remove the pan from the heat.

6. 6

   Stir in the vanilla extract and salt until combined.

7. 7

   Add the rolled oats to the saucepan and mix quickly until they are completely coated in the chocolate mixture.

   Přibližně 1 min

8. 8

   Working quickly, drop heaping tablespoons of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet to form individual cookies.

   Přibližně 2 min

   Poznámka kuchaře: A cookie scoop can help make uniform cookies and speed up this step.

9. 9

   Let the cookies cool and set at room temperature for about 20-30 minutes, or until they are firm to the touch.

   Přibližně 20 min

   Poznámka kuchaře: You can place them in the refrigerator to speed up the setting process if you're short on time.
