Date Oatmeal Cookies With Milk Chocolate Chips image

Don't let the name fool you into thinking this will taste like a healthy cookie ... it tastes great. I had a few things I needed to use up in the pantry and wow it worked and worked well. This makes a great chewy cookie. Option: Instead of using milk chocolate chips get a chocolate bar break along the individual lines and lay on a cookie as it comes out of the oven. Top with another hot cookie and move to rack to cool.

I'm not a big fan of dates, but these cookies were really good. The milk chocolate chips helped to balance out the sweetness of the dates.

These cookies are really good, but they're a bit too chewy for me. I think I'll try baking them for a few minutes less next time.

I found that the cookies were a bit dry. I think I'll try adding a little bit of butter or oil next time.

These cookies are a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.
