The Story Behind My Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies
If you have been here a while, you may remember that my mom and I used to hate making cookies. They always took so long to scoop and bake. As a teenager, I always seemed to lose interest in finishing all the dough and would leave it for my mom to do.
However, when we did make cookies, these oatmeal chocolate chip cookies were always at the top of the list. In fact, whenever my mom comes to visit, she will usually whip up a batch of these cookies with a grandchild or two.
This past Sunday, my daughter woke up begging to make oatmeal cookies. She and her brother must have been talking to each other because he kept asking about making chocolate oatmeal cookies as well.
Our Sunday afternoon zoomed by, and we still hadn’t made the cookies. As soon as the dinner time chores were over, I whipped out my mixer and the ingredients and got my daughter to work. My son joined in and we had the dough made and ready to bake in less than 5 minutes. They were both surprised at how quickly we did it.
After they came out of the oven, we enjoyed them warm with a cup of milk. We finished the night off with family card games, so I call it a win. You seriously can’t go wrong in the fun mom department when you have cookies and games in the same night.
