oatmeal chocolate chip cookie recipe

Occasionally I break free from my makeup loving ways and spend a day practising one of my other loves – baking. In previous years my baking skills took on a bit of a cult following with my coworkers, friends and family, but I had dialled in back in an attempt to not eat so much baking myself. I will say though, if there is one thing I firmly believe in, it is homemade cookies > storebought. You’ll never convince me otherwise. So I thought I’d share my recipe for Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Cookies that are so good, you’ll have people asking for them!

This recipe is super easy and yields approx 24 2.5 inch sized cookies. The outcome is a dense and tender, chewy cookie with crispy edges. I’ve narrowed down a few tricks that really help with the outcome of these, and the recipe is pretty much foolproof! You can prepare in advance and keep pre-sized dough in the fridge for up to a day (or freeze and bake as needed) then bake right out of the refrigerator!
