Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies
It’s that time of year again! Cookie baking time. Our first recipe is a classic chocolate chip meets oatmeal cookie. This cookie as well as regular chocolate chips are not only favorites, but they are so easy to make. Because of their large size, they make a nice foundation for your cookie tins this holiday season! I always double my recipes because I need many, many cookies! Enjoy.
