SparklyUnicorn Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 I signed up to bake cookies for some charity thing. I love to bake, but don't get to do it much because I won't generally eat any of that stuff. So this seemed like a great chance to bake something. I committed to oatmeal chocolate chip cookies. So anyone have a good recipe? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JFSinIL Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 I use the one on the Quaker Oats box. Don't recall the written fat content, but i use half unsalted butter, half Crisco veggie shortening. Like my cookies chewy, not as flat and crisp as 100% butter can get. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goldberry Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 Laura Bush Cowboy cookies are always a big hit. https://cooking.nytimes.com/recipes/4997-cowboy-cookies I used to love those cookies! When we moved to high altitude they wouldn't work. I tried all the tricks, but never was able to adjust it with any success. :glare: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PrairieSong Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 These are the best cookies! The butter needs to be soft but not too soft. You can halve the recipe if you don't want to make a huge batch. https://bakingnaturally.org/the-secret-to-chewy-chocolate-chip-cookies Sent from my XT1635-01 using Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AppleGreen Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 I just make my regular chocolate chip recipe, but sub 1 1/4 cup of oats for flour. 1 stick of softened butter (this is key, make sure it is soft, but not melted!) Cream with 1/2 c. brown sugar and 1/2 c. white sugar (I think the original recipe call for 3/4 c. each, but in an effort to cut out a little sugar...) Add one egg and mix well Add another egg, mix well Add 1 tsp. vanilla, mix 2 1/4 c. flour/flour substitute (or 1 c. flour and 1 1/4 c. oats) 1 tsp. baking powder 1/2 tsp. salt Mix until almost all combined Add 1 bag of chocolate chips (we like the Ghirardelli dark chocolate chips) Finish mixing If I have time, I like to put the mix in the refrigerator for 20-30 minutes, then bake in a 350* oven for 10-12 minutes Yum! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeterPan Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 Laura Bush Cowboy cookies are always a big hit. https://cooking.nytimes.com/recipes/4997-cowboy-cookies I know these work for breakfast with milk, but what do I have to serve them with to call them dinner? Maybe sausage? :drool5: 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alice Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 I like an adapted version of Paula Deen’s Monster Cookies. They are a little overly sweet but you can cut down on the sugar a bit and leave out the M&Ms if you want. They also have no flour so have the advantage of being potentially gluten free (you have to use the right kind of oatmeal and other ingredients). I’m not gluten free but since so many people are these days it can be nice to bring that as an option. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
umsami Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 (edited) I use the Quaker Oats recipe and add in chocolate chips and unsweetened coconut. We like coconut chocolate chip oatmeal cookies in my house. :). Cinnamon works, but not everybody likes it. I always double the vanilla. http://www.quakeroats.com/cooking-and-recipe/vanishing-oatmeal-raisin-cookies.aspx Edited October 4, 2017 by umsami 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KungFuPanda Posted October 5, 2017 Share Posted October 5, 2017 The butterscotch chips have a great oatmeal chip recipe on the back. It seems an easy swap to make. Or just make the butterscotch ones and send me some for quality control purposes. I'd love to help you out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
