Cookies are my weakness. And nothing is better to me than a cookie with both oatmeal and chocolate chips. I mean, what’s a cookie without chocolate?

I am constantly making different types of cookies, based on whatever I have on hand. But, this is one of my goto made up recipes. I love the cinnamon and oats mixed with the chocolate. The cookies are soft, but not so soft that they don’t stay together when you are eating them. YUM.
