When my brother & SIL were moving out of the place next door, I found a copy of Kootenay Woman Magazine, a freebie that comes in our mailboxes every so often. This recipe was on the back cover, and it caught my eye as I was putting it in the recycling bin. I made it the other day, making one significant substitution: I put espresso powder in place of the cinnamon. WIN! It was awesome. I kept about a dozen cookies for myself and took the rest into work, where they were much appreciated.
Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies
1 1/2 cups flour
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
2 tsp espresso powder (original recipe says 1 tsp cinnamon)
1/2 cup butter
1 cup brown sugar, packed
1/2 cup sugar
2 eggs
1 1/2 cups quick oats
1 cup chocolate chips
1/2 cup chopped nuts (I used pecans)
350F oven. Cream, combine, scoop, bake. Makes about 3 dozen cookies formed with a #70 cookie scoop.
Delish!

Thaks for subitting this for Magazine Monday!
That sounds amazing. Great idea to put espresso powder instead of cinnamon, it's like having your coffee and oatmeal in one, except better because it's a cookie!
Are you participating in Magazine Monday this upcoming week? I have an Italian dish to share.
By the way, I left you an award on my site. :-)
@ Pierce: I don't have anything planned to submit so far, so probably not. I'll check out the site shortly!
What a nice twist on an oatmeal cookie. That one is worth a try.
Thanks.
