I modified Beatrice's Excellent Oatmeal

cookies very slightly. I came up with these
chocolate chip oatmeal cookies that my
boyfriend went CRAZY over! I've never seen
him enjoy cookies to that extent! He said I
blew his mother's recipe away.

How to Make Oatmeal

Chocolate Chip Cookies
These oatmeal chocolate chip cookies are
super easy to mix up in a stand mixer or with
your hand mixer. Simply cream together your
butter (make sure it's so! for easy beating)
and sugars. Then add the rest of the wet
ingredients, then the rest of the dry
ingredients.

Mix in the quick oats, walnuts, and chocolate

chips by hand so they don't get crushed.

Luckily for you, these are drop cookies, so

you don't even have to worry about working
with the dough. Simply drop spoonfuls of
dough onto ungreased baking sheets and
bake them.

What Are the Best Oats To

Use For Cookies?
We know, the oat selection in the grocery
store can be quite overwhelming. There's just
so many options to choose from. For oatmeal
chocolate chip cookies, you should use either
quick-cooking oats (like in this recipe) or old-
fashioned oats.

Old-fashioned oats will give you chewier

cookies than quick-cooking oats, if that's
what you prefer.

How to Store Oatmeal

Chocolate Chip Cookies
Store baked cookies in an airtight container
at room temperature for up to two weeks.
Though they probably won't last that long
because you'll want to eat them all straight
out of the oven!

How to Freeze Oatmeal

Chocolate Chip Cookies
You can freeze oatmeal chocolate chip
cookies both baked and unbaked.

To freeze baked cookies, store them in layers

with a piece of parchment paper in between
each layer in airtight containers or zip-top
bags (make sure to squeeze out the excess
air). Freeze for up to three months.

To freeze cookie dough, place the dough balls

on a baking sheet and place them in the
freezer until solid. A!er the dough is
hardened, transfer it to a zip-top bag (with
the excess air squeezed out) and freeze for up
to three months. When you're ready to bake,
thaw the cookie dough in the fridge overnight
and bake at 325 degrees F. You may need to
add a few extra minutes to the baking time —
especially if the dough is still hard.

Allrecipes Community Tips

and Praise
"These cookies are so good! Crispy on the
outside and chewy in the middle. I had a lot
of white chocolate chips so I mixed in white
chocolate chips, then divided the dough and
added butterscotch chips to half and
chocolate chips to the other half," says
HISTORYGIRL04.

"A!er trying many different oatmeal cookies

looking for the perfect chewy cookie I finally
found this one! I do add some cinnamon and
nutmeg because I like some spice in my
oatmeal cookies. Perfect," raves Shannon.

"These are delicious. Having made oatmeal

cookies before, I found chilling them for 20
min before baking prevented the flat cookie. I
did not put in any nuts, so my kids could take
them to school. Otherwise I followed the
recipe and we love them," according to
Mamabear2017.
