How to Make Black Forest Oatmeal Cookies
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened butter, ¾ cup granulated sugar, and ¾ cup packed brown sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in 2 large eggs, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 2 tablespoons milk until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 3 cups rolled oats, 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, ½ teaspoon salt, and ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Stir in 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chunks, 1 cup chopped maraschino cherries (drained), and ½ cup slivered almonds.
- Drop by rounded tablespoons (about 2 tablespoons each) onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving 2 inches between each cookie.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown. Avoid overbaking.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 2 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
