These cookies really went over well with my family. I use a small scoop since we like small cookies and had about 100 cookies in the batch. I found that it was easier to use 18 oz containers of peanut butter and oats then to be exact in the measurements. It worked really well, and makes mixing up a batch easy. They also froze extremely well, added 1 minute to the baking time, and it worked like a charm.

These ended up being pantry cleaner cookies for me, lol! I was completely out of plain old chocolate chips, so I just tossed in a total of two cups of four different "ends" (M&M's, Ghirardelli milk chocolate chips, Nestle's caramel swirl chips, and Nestle's vanilla milk chips). I think when I make these again, I'm going to stick with the mixed bag of chips, because they were really good that way. I found the oats to be a little bit too prominent a flavor/texture when they were fresh out of the oven, but I think the flavor improved after the cookies were cooled. Not that they tasted bad when they were first baked, they just seemed a bit granola bar-ish to me at first ( I was expecing something a little bit more gooey, I think). All in all, very good cookies! Thanks for posting! Made for PAC Fall 07
