This is fun… I will probably vote for these because I love oatmeal cookies AND we don’t need any more cookies with chocolate chips, PLEASE NOT!! However, **adding butterscotch chips** instead makes the most delicious oatmeal cookie ever–try it at home and let me know if you agree. Also, I don’t like the look of an under-baked cookie, so it is important to leave cookies in the oven just long enough until they get that fresh-baked glow (like they’ve just been to the beach!!) :) Good luck!
When I was little my Mom used to put butterscotch cips in her oatmeal cookies. She called them Oatmeal-Scotchies. She’s been sick for quite a while now so we (the family) don’t get her baking like we used to, we miss her and her cooking a lot.
my mom ALWAYS makes oatmeal chocolate chip cookies yum!!!!! try it, u just make oatmeal cookies but add chocolate chips!!!!!
Those NEED chocolate chips, definitely, because otherwise they’ll taste kind of bland. :P
i can’t stand oatmeal but people that like it will love this.
I love these with raisins and English walnuts!
