The Best Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies
There’s almost nothing better than chocolate chip cookies, well, only if you add the tasty goodness of rolled oats!! These are The Best Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies in the world. Ok, maybe not the world, but they are pretty darn good!
Cookies are a staple in our house. If you ask around, the family favorites are Mint Chocolate Chip and Oatmeal Butterscotch Cookies. Behind the reigning champ, chocolate chip of course. I have a soft spot for those, which goes back to my childhood when they were the only cookies I knew how to make, so they’re probably made more often than the others 🙂
I’d rather have a homemade sweet packed in the kids’ lunch boxes versus one with additives and preservatives. So, I often bake a batch of Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies and place them in a freezer so the kids can grab and go when they’re packing their lunches.
It’s true, you can read here Why My Kids Pack Their Own Lunches. All four are quite good at it now and they know not every day is a treat day!
How to Make Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies
This recipe has a secret ingredient that makes the cookies so special. Not all oatmeal cookies recipes have it. I’ve tried the one on the box of Quaker Oatmeal and it doesn’t compare.
Just a pinch of cinnamon and nutmeg (the secret ingredient) and a little extra vanilla, these cookies turn out extraordinarily special.
