SOFT OATMEAL COCONUT CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES



Soft Oatmeal Coconut Chocolate Chip Cookies image

These cookies are soft and chewy and didn't last a day after making them! Once I thought I HATED coconut, but these made me realize I just didn't like overly sweet coconut. These are fabulous! Made with whole wheat flour and oatmeal, it's a better alternative to the traditional cookie.

SOFT CHOCOLATE OATMEAL COOKIES



Soft Chocolate Oatmeal Cookies image

From the cookbook "A Chocolate Christmas" this is a bit different from the other recipes posted here with the addition of the milk and cinnamon. Makes for a great holiday cookie but also a cookie for anytime of the year - especially lunch boxes! Sometimes I skip the raisins and just add in chopped walnuts or dried cranberries for an even more unique flavor.

SOFT CHOCOLATE-ALMOND OATMEAL COOKIES



Soft Chocolate-Almond Oatmeal Cookies image

Credit for the recipe goes to The Weekend Baker, by Abigail Johnson Dodge, my currently favorite cookbook. It yields delicious, soft, cakelike cookies, with added crunch from the toasted almonds. If you don't have any toasted almonds on hand, its easy to do before you start, almond slivers just need a stint the same oven temperature as the recipe requires--350 degrees-- for about 8 minutes. Also, I use the spoon-and-sweep method. Dip-and-sweep will result in too much flour.

Time 1h3m

Yield 45 cookies, 45 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 cups quick-cooking rolled oats
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup natural unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon table salt
1 1/3 cups firmly packed light brown sugar
16 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 large egg
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
1/3 cup whole milk
1 cup slivered almonds, toasted

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees, line three cookie sheets with parchment or nonstick baking liners.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the oats, flour, baking soda, and salt. Whisk until well blended.
  • In another large bowl combine the brown sugar and butter, beat with an electric mixer on medium speed until well combined. Add the eggs and vanilla and almond extracts and beat until well combined.
  • Pour in half of the dry ingredients and mix on low speed just until blended. Add the milk and mix until just blended. Pour in the remaining flour mixture and mix until just blended. Add the nuts and mix briefly to combine.
  • Shape the dough unto 1.5 in balls. Arrange the mounds on the cookie sheets, about 2 inches apart. Lightly dampen your fingertips and slightly flatten each mound, so they're about .5 inches thick.
  • Bake one sheet at a time on the middle rack until the cookies are puffed and still moist-looking on top, about 11 minutes.
