Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies

Background

I got this recipe from my friend, Jennifer. They are similar to Mrs. Field’s cookies. She always brings some of these delicious cookies with her when she and her husband, Doug (a childhood friend of Roland’s) come to our cottage. Today is the first day I’m actually going to try making them. I have been craving the perfect oatmeal-based food for quite some time now. Hopefully this satisfies my craving and I can stop searching for the right taste and texture.
