GIANT OATMEAL COOKIES



GIANT OATMEAL COOKIES image

Categories     Cookies

Yield 24 Cookies

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 cup butter
1 cup sugar
1 cup firmly packed dark brown sugar
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla
1-1/2 cup flour
2 tsp cinnamon
2 tsp allspice
2 tsp cloves
1 tsp ginger
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp soda
3 cups quick oats

Steps:

  • Cream butter, sugar and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs and vanilla. Stir together flour, cinnamon, allspice, cloves, ginger, salt and baking soda. Stir flour mixture into butter mixture. Stir in oats. Let dough sit at room temperature for two hours. Drop about 1/4 cup of dough at a time onto lightly greated cookie sheet. Flatten cookies slightly with back of spoon. Bake in 375 over for 10 minutes. Do not overbake.

Tips:

  • Use fresh oats. Fresh oats will yield chewier cookies than old oats. If you don't have fresh oats, you can toast them in the oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 10 minutes before using them.
  • Use brown sugar instead of white sugar. Brown sugar will give your cookies a richer flavor and a chewier texture.
  • Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing the dough will make the cookies tough. Mix the dough just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Chill the dough before baking. Chilling the dough will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Bake the cookies at a high temperature. Baking the cookies at a high temperature will help them get crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before storing them. This will help them keep their shape and texture.

Conclusion:

Giant oatmeal cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With their chewy texture, sweet flavor, and satisfying crunch, these cookies are sure to be a hit at your next party or gathering. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy snack or dessert, give these giant oatmeal cookies a try. You won't be disappointed!
