My kids absolutely love this recipe for Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies. Slightly crisp on the outside, chewy and chocolaty on the inside. Yum!
This recipe was originally posted in August of 2013, now it is May of 2017. It is the Friday before Mother’s Day, and we are getting close to the end of the school year. I got in the mood to make my kids some cookies, so I thought I would take the opportunity to update this old blog post.

I do believe these cookies are still a family favorite. The kids will be home soon and I am sure the pile of cookies will quickly shrink.
