2 dozen
- Serves:
- 24
ingredients
- 1⁄2 cup butter
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 3 tablespoons granulated sugar

- 1 1⁄4 teaspoons instant coffee, finely ground

directions
- Before starting, grind enough oatmeal in the food processor to make the necessary 1 3/4 cups you will need to make these cookies! Or, if you're lucky enough to find Oat Flour, use that!
- With electric mixer, blend butter with both sugars, egg and vanilla extract.
- Add dry ingredients to mixture- blend well.
- Stir in chocolate chips.
- Spoon golf ball-size balls of mixture onto prepared cookie sheets (either use cooking spray or parchment paper).
- Bake at 265 degrees for 23 minutes (yes, I know this sounds strange, but trust me, it works!).

****PLEASE NOTE: THE METRIC EQUIVALENTS FOR DRY INGREDIENTS ARE WRONG.***** They're calculated on the assumption that "cup" refers to a cup of fluid, which weighs 240 ml. However, a cup of dry ingredients (measured in grams, not ml) never weighs 240 grams, bc the particles pack more loosely. One cup of sugar weighs 200 grams. One cup of flour weighs between 116 and 156 grams, depending on the type of flour and on how loosely you pack it. I just weighed my oat flour: 116 grams for one cup, loosely packed. So please keep this in mind if you make this recipe using metric weights rather than US measurements. Thanks.

I made these last weekend. I baked one pan according to the directions given; 265 degrees for 23 minutes. These cookies turned very hard after the cooled, they were good dunked in tea, and coffee. The second pan I baked like the other oat flour cookies I make; @350 for 10 min, turning the pan around half way through. These cookies stayed chewy, just the way I like them. Thank you for the recipe! They were a nice departure from the usual peanut butter & oat flour cookies I normally make.
