This fall has been rough for us as we seem to have been battling a “forever” cold. Every time one seems to get over it, someone else gets it, and so on. I kind of figured this would happen with our new Kindergartner coming home with fun new germs. I was finally feeling a bit better and thought that a nice warm, sweet treat to fill the bellies may make everyone feel a little better. Plus, there is nothing better than the oven warming the house.
These cookies really have it all. While the classic chocolate chip cookie will hold a special place in my heart, these will most likely become the cookies that I make when we are making cookies for others, need that extra comfort, or I have a lot of chocolate chips on hand. That doesn’t seem like much of a challenge, but in my house it is. I’m actually the chocolate chip monster!
Back to the cookies. These are soft and chewy, yet have a nice little crunch to them. The rolled oats create a nice little nutty taste and there are plenty, I mean plenty of chocolate chips. With 2 sticks of butter and 3 cups of chocolate chips, can you go wrong? And since there is oatmeal in them, they are kind of good for you, right? You’ve got to give these a try. I really believe you’ll be thankful. The great part is the recipe makes a lot so what I do is make some and freeze some so when that inkling for more cookies comes, I can just pop them in the oven!

I’m so sorry your family has been sick. Kindergarten is rough on kids when they haven’t been in daycare for years to build up that immune system. These cookies sounds and look amazing. I love oatmeal and chocolate chips so this is a perfect combination!

I think that is half of my problem too. I haven’t been out in the work force since I’m a stay at home mom. Granted stores are nasty. So she’s bringing it all home to us!

Hi Maeghan! This combines two of my favorite cookies! When we lived in MI there was an older gentleman I knew and I would make him “COP” cookies (chocolate chip, oatmeal and peanut butter) – he always returned my containers promptly and I would promptly make him more. π

yum, thanks for the recipe. I love oatmeal cookies but can’t stand raisins (tricksters!) so I’m glad to see chocolate chip versions π
Get well soon!
