Chocolate Chunk Oat Cookies
Chocolate Chunk Oat Cookies
These are my family’s absolute favourite. I’ve been making them for years and it’s probably my most frequently requested recipe. I think they are made by cooks all around the country these days. They are very good. They won’t sit around for long, but will keep in an airtight container for up to 10 days.
