Do you have a bunch of oatmeal sitting around? There’s no better way to make good use of it than with Oatmeal Cookies! These crispy, chewy and slightly crunchy cookies are sure to impress almost anyone. Unlike some other recipes, this recipe uses real oats, not quick oats or any other special variety. The original recipe calls for raisins but I used chocolate chips instead. Use whichever you want, I have nothing against raisins but chocolate chips are better! If you want you can also add chopped nuts into the recipe. These cookies are very easy to make and you will be eating them in no time. If you are looking for a great cookie recipe, give these a try! Enjoy.
