I think these bad guys need no introduction. Their reputation definitely precedes them. This was the first time I tasted one, let alone made one. I was very pleased with the way they turned out. They were nice and chewy. There are so many flavors and textures in there. In every bite you can taste the peanut butter, the chocolate and the candy. I think this is also a lot healthier than the average cookie since this recipe uses no flour. It just uses old fashioned oats, which are packed with fiber, which is really good for your health. This cookie is now one of my favorite ways to eat oats 🙂
When you sit down to eat these cookies, please make sure that you have a tall glass of milk to go with it. The experience will be totally blissful.
Stir in remaining ingredients.
Enjoy.
Note: I halved the recipe and got about 20 cookies.
