Crispy Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies

Crispy Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies
  • 1/2 cup butter , at room temperature

  • 1 cup sugar

  • 1 tablespoon molasses

  • 1 cup flour

  • 1 cup oats

  • 1 teaspoon baking powder

  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

  • 1 egg

  • 1 tablespoon vanilla (real vanilla is wonderful in this!)

  • 1 cup chocolate chips

  • Preheat your oven to 375°F.

  • 2
    Cream the butter, sugar and molasses together in a stand mixer. Beat until well combined and ‘creamy’. If you don’t have a stand mixer beat vigorously by hand in a large mixing bowl. Add the egg and vanilla to the butter mixture and continue beating until well combined.

    Meanwhile whisk the flour, oats, salt, baking powder and salt together in a separate bowl.

  • 4
    Gradually add the flour mix to the wet mixture, beating just until combined. Stir in the chocolate chips by hand.

  • 5
    Using a tablespoon scoop out a ball of the dough and drop onto a lightly greased cookie tray. Flatten slightly. Repeat, leaving lots of room in between the balls for the cookies to expand. Bake for fifteen minutes. Cool for ten minutes then remove from the tray and try to eat only one!

  • What Went Well?
    Things that went well during this recipe were that we all took turns making, mixing and shaping our own cookies. I think this was a very successful cooking day. I very much like today because the cookies were heavenly delicious. Very easy but tasty recipe.
    What Didn’t Go Well?
    The thing that didn’t go well was that when I made my cookies the were so delicious that I only ended up eating two cookies. The rest were demolished by my savage friends. I think I should’ve kept them in my locker.
    What Would’ve You Done Different?
    I think the one think I would’ve done differently is to make more cookies and make them bigger because they were so delightful. If I had made more I would’ve shared a lot with my friends. Who knows maybe even strangers.
    What Did You Learn?
    The thing I love about this recipe that its so easy and simple but at the same time complex in taste! Absolutely recipe I will make again, and again……………….and again. J
