Ingredients for Amazing Oatmeal Cookies

  • Oats
  • Rice Krispies
  • Flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • Baking Powder
  • 2 large eggs
  • 3/4 cup packed brown sugar
  • Sugar
  • 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter
  • Unsweetened Coconut
  • 1 cup chopped walnuts
  • Dark Chocolate Chips

How to Make Amazing Oatmeal Cookies

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups rolled oats, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1 cup Rice Krispies cereal.
  3. In a separate bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, 1 cup granulated sugar, and 3/4 cup packed brown sugar until light and fluffy.
  4. Beat in 2 large eggs until well combined.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients (from step 2) to the wet ingredients (from step 3), mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  6. Gently fold in 1 cup chopped walnuts, 1/2 cup shredded coconut, and 1 cup chocolate chips using a rubber spatula.
  7. Drop rounded tablespoons of cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
  8. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
