The title speaks for itself. These cookies are a dream come true. They are delicious, so easy to make, impossible to mess up and are a crowd favorite.
You’ll love them. The combination of oatmeal, coconut, walnuts, chocolate chips, and a cookie, really is amazing.
These are quite rich and filling, so they are perfect for serving a crowd. They are also the best cookie to dip in milk. I would even say better than Oreo’s.
Tips for making soft and chewy cookies
- Knowing how your cookies, ingredients, combine and react together, is key to making soft and chewy cookies.
- The main key to making soft and chewy cookies is how your butter is softened. If you melt your butter in the microwave, completely, your cookies are going to be a little crunchy. You want your butter to be softened at room temperature, not melted, so the dough will be thicker, and not so liquidy. If you are using margarine, it doesn’t need to be softened or microwaved. But if you are using butter, it should be the same texture as margarine. Either one would work for this recipe.
- It’s also important that you add the ingredients in order. The ingredients react differently when added at different times. We highly recommend following the recipe.
- If you are making the cookies ahead of time, and are planning to store them, we recommend using an airtight plastic container, as well as layering them with wax or parchment paper between each layer.
- We also recommend placing a piece of bread in the container to keep it extra fresh. It sounds weird, but it works. I don’t exactly know the science behind it, but I do know it works. Try it if you don’t believe me.
