I'm not a big cookie person but this chocolate chip oatmeal cookie is delicious. It's soft and chewy - a rarity with oatmeal cookies in my opinion. The recipe is great but I made a couple of adjustments. I used my favorite Trader Joe's steel cut oats instead of old-fashioned rolled oats. I think it elevates the flavor because they're a bit denser. Since I'm not a chocolate person I used 1 cup of chocolate chunks instead of 1 1/2 cups. I brought the cookies to work and Gina and Sheila agreed it's a good chocolate to oatmeal ratio. The best thing about oatmeal cookies is that it's easy to call them breakfast.
Happy Friday!
