Chewy Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies

Honestly, I never got the hype with oatmeal choc chip cookies, but of course, after I perfected my version of a classic recipe, oh man. I get it. These cookies really hit the mark. They were soft to touch & chewy to taste, with the added nuttiness from the oats!

These are adapted from KAF 2015 cookie of the year, and they were declared cookie of the year for a reason! They have a delectable soft exterior, and is chewy with every bite. Enjoy 🤎
