  1. This is very similar to another recipe Ive rated on here, still a five star one at that. These are delicious! Love the chewy texture and the mix of chocolate chips and oats.
     
  2. I made a batch of these over the weekend and they practically "flew" out of the cookie jar. In a hurry, I forgot to check that I had enough of all the ingredients--I didn't! So I ended up using 1 cup of muesli for the second cup of oatmeal. It worked just fine -- perhaps added a bit more fiber! Thanks for posting this recipe!
     
  3. I love oatmeal cookies but had never tried them with chocolate chips. These were so yummy and very easy. I think I like these better than those with raisins in them. Soft and chewy, just the way we like them. Thanks :)
     
  4. These cookies are very delicious. Thanks, bert, for posting this recipe. My family and I really have enjoyed them. I usually put raisins in my oatmeal cookies but the chocolate chips were a great idea. Nice chewy texture but slightly crisp too after they cooled. They won't last long.
     
  5. Thank you bert. My family and I loved these cookies. The butter and brown sugar flavors are distinctive to me and what make these so good. I like the chocolate chips too. A yummy, made from scratch treat. Thanks again.

I love to cook and so I am thrilled that I found recipezaar. I work as an educational assistant in a food school so I am around food all day long. I have four children, three of which have already flown the coop so to speak but I still have my 'baby' at home. (He's 21). I am lucky in that I have my summers off so I spend a lot of time trying new recipes and catching up on my reading. I also play soccer in a ladies league to stay in shape.
