Mmmmmmmm! These were SO GOOD! I did add extra chocolate chips but that is the only change I made. I LOVED THEM LOVED THEM LOVED THEM! Edit to add: I make these often now. They are so wonderful. I have found that a hefty dose of cinnamon added is very good in them too. I have tried cutting the sugar since I add so many extra chocolate chips and they still turn out a delicious cookie. This is my all time favorite cookie to make and eat!

Wow, these are really good. I love oatmeal in cookies and I added chocolate/peanut butter chips and they turned out fantastic. Chewy in the middle. A keeper.

So incredibly yummy! I added one cup of chocolate chips and one cup of M&Ms. I will make these again and again. One batch made about seven dozen large cookies.

I made these cookies for my out of town guests this weekend. I halved the recipe and made 3.5 dozen, the 4 of us ate all of them in 3 days! I used creamy peanut butter and old fashion oats (that’s what I had), and they were wonderful! We spent the weekend thinking of other things to put in the cookies and decided raisins, peanut butter chips, toffee chips, caramel chips, and mini M&Ms would all be awesome (especially if you could use them all together). Great recipe, thanks for sharing!
