  2. Remove from heat and stir in 1 1/2 cups quick-cooking oats, 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  3. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are well combined and the mixture is slightly sticky.
  4. Using a teaspoon or small cookie scoop, drop rounded portions onto a sheet of wax paper.
  5. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the balls to firm up completely before serving.
