Steel Cut Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies
These aren’t your normal oatmeal cookies. Instead of using regular rolled oats, I used instant steel cut oats. They change the consistency of the cookie; almost having a likeness to granola bars. It is very important to use instant steel cut oats instead of regular ones that require lots of cooking. If you use the wrong ones, you will have gravel cookies. Nobody wants gravel cookies. I also added some chocolate chips and walnuts to the cookie dough because I like chocolate and nuts in my cookies. And 420 butter. Can’t forget that. The cookies only take 12 minutes to bake in 2 separate batches, yielding 2 dozen cookies.
