How to Make Creative Pan Cookies Desert Safe

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, ½ teaspoon salt, and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
  3. In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter and 1 ½ cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  4. Beat in 2 large eggs one at a time.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with ½ cup water, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
  6. Stir in 1 cup chocolate morsels, 1 cup rolled oats, and 1 cup chopped apples.
  7. Spread the batter evenly into an ungreased 15x10 inch jelly-roll pan.
  8. Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs.
  9. Let the cookies cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before cutting.
  10. Once completely cool, cut into bars.
