I love these cookies! They are the perfect late afternoon pick me up on days when a piece of fresh fruit or a handful of nuts just won't do the trick.
I often bake a batch, devour two (one warm) and then store what is left after hubby samples some in the freezer. I often forget they are there and am pleasantly surprised when I re-discover them in the hopes of curbing my sweet tooth. They take 5-10 seconds to thaw and get gooey in the microwave. When I don't store them in the freezer, I give some to friends to brighten their day or bake a batch as a thank you hostess gift. These cookies literally take 10 minutes to assemble.
Mine always seem to come out differently as I use what I feel like on that day or what I have on hand. Here is my basic recipe for chocolate and walnut oat cookies with delicious variations to make this recipe your own.
I adapted the recipe from the wonderfully talented Bethenny Franklin's Oatmeal Banana Choc-chip cookies.
See recipe here.
Happy baking!
