We Made Cookies!

Man, I've been messing with this recipe several times this month and I finally got it down.
Go bake some, they are awesome. Nice moist center, nice crunchy edges. I hope you enjoy!

Maiden Mothers Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies
2 cups flour
1 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. baking powder
2 tsp. cinnamon
1/2 tsp. ground ginger
dash of nutmeg (how big of a dash is up to you!)

1 cup unsalted butter (2 sticks), room temperature
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/3 cup brown sugar
2 tsp. vanilla
2 tbsp. milk
2 eggs

2 cups rolled old-fashioned rolled oats
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
3/4 cup miniature semi-sweet chocolate chips


Mix together flour, baking soda, baking powder and spices (cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg).


Beat together butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar in a separate bowl until light and fluffy.
(I do this part by hand, as in not with an electric mixer).
then beat in vanilla, milk, and eggs.


Beat flour mixture into butter mixture until well blended.
Fold 1 cup oats and 1 cup chocolate chips into batter, when well mixed fold in another cup of oats and chocolate chips.

Refrigerate dough for 10 minutes. During this time preheat oven to 350.
Shape dough into 1 inch balls, placing cookies 2 inches apart on lightly greased baking sheets. (I use an olive oil spray to grease baking sheets).
Flatten the cookies slightly.

Bake 10-12 minutes, leaving cookies on baking sheets a few minutes before you transfer to cooling racks.

Makes 2-3 dozens depending on size.

  1. Those cookies look delicious! I will have to give them a try (even though they probably aren't so good for my weight-loss efforts!)
