They are actually a little "whiter" than in the picture. Hubby gives them the thumbs up. Nice. Not too sweet.

These are my daughter's favourite cookies. We make them without blending the oatmeal and they turn out great every time. Because of the large amount of cookies this recipe makes, we either make half a batch or roll half the batch in to balls and freeze them to bake later. Also, the President's Choice chocolate chips are the best! I like to use butterscotch chips with the chocolate chips for an added decadence.

I'm sorry but I can't go as far as to say these are sensational cookies. You definitely have to make sure they don't overbake as Sackville indicated. On the other hand my family thought they were good but they weren't hanging around the cookie jar as they do for others I bake. Honestly I'm pretty sure I won't be baking them again. I have another chocolate chip oatmeal cookie recipe that is much, much better - I'll research as to whether it's posted already - it came from an ancient copy of High Light magazine in the 1980s - if not found I will share because it so much better than this recipe.

hmmmmm... they even pass the ultimate cookie test. They don't turn into hockey pucks once they cool.

I have had this recipe for years and recently lost it. You can't imagine how upset I was, as this recipe makes the MOST PERFECT COOKIE. I have people begging for this recipe. I add a handful of coconut to this and it is fantastic! I was so surpised to find it with google!
