A few weeks ago, someone got me craving oatmeal cookies. BIG TIME!
I had sort of forgotten that oatmeal cookies even existed before I saw them. Then it all came back to me. The sweet chewyness, the moist tenderness and their distinct sugary flavor. The aroma of the cookie that just fills the room as they bake… There’s just something about them that takes you back.
While a cookie is still a cookie, this recipe offer a slightly healthier goody. The chewy oatmeal cookie coupled with the nutritious whole weat flour and lots of cheese makes a perfect flavor combination. The only downside to whipping up a batch of these cookies is you may find it impossible to hold back from eating the entire batch!!!
