One of the recipes in this book was German Chocolate Oatmeal Cookies. Since I'm a big German Chocolate fan, I decided to give them a try, so you could try them too. In the cookbook they are presented as Cookies in a Jar--you know, the ones where you put the dry ingredients in a Mason jar for gift-giving. . However, I'm not a fan of cookies in a jar so I just made them, with help from my trusty assistant.

I've never been too fond of oatmeal cookies, but if I made some with german chocolate, I may have to change my mind.
ReplyDeleteLooks like you had fun!
I have read and re read this recipe and do not see oatmeal listed as an ingredient.
ReplyDeleteIs it me in the process of losing my mind or was it really omitted in the recipe.
If you'll read my review you'll note that I said a major ingredient was omitted, and that ingredient was oatmeal.
ReplyDeleteI thought I was losing my mind as well, and I had someone else read it because of the omission. How much Oatmeal would you put in the recipe?
ReplyDeleteI,too, would like to know how much oatmeal. Want to make them but don't know how much to add? Please?
ReplyDeleteI think I used somewhere between a cup and a cup and a half of oatmeal. I just sort of added it until the dough looked right--I make the Oatmeal Scotchies from the Nestle butterscotch chip bag frequently so I know what oatmeal cookie dough should look like texture-wise. That recipe calls for 1 cup butter and 2 eggs, like Debbie's does. It calls for 1 1/4 cup flour; Debbie's calls for 2 cups. It calls for 3 cups oatmeal, but I think that's too much to use here because you have more flour and also the coconut.
