Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough will make the cookies tough. Mix the ingredients just until they are combined.
Chill the dough: Chilling the dough will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much in the oven.
Bake the cookies at a high temperature: Baking the cookies at a high temperature will help them develop a crispy exterior and a chewy interior.
Let the cookies cool completely: Let the cookies cool completely before storing them. This will help them to keep their shape and texture.

Ranger cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. With their chewy texture, crispy exterior, and loaded with oats, chocolate chips, and nuts, these cookies are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
