Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper. Set aside.
In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium-high heat. Add the milk, sugar, and cacao powder and stir until it starts to boil. Set a timer and let the mixture boil for 2 minutes. Then, turn off the heat.
Add in the vanilla, almond butter, and oats, and stir until everything is combined.
Using a medium sized cookie scooper, scoop the cookies onto the baking sheet.
While the cookies are still warm, flatten the cookies using a spoon to your desired thickness.
Let the cookies cool at room temperature for about 30 minutes, or chill in the fridge for about 20 minutes until firm.
