OATS Quick cooking oats will produce a softer cookie, but old-fashioned oats can work, giving the cookies a firmer texture.

EXTRAS Adding flaked coconut, chopped nuts, even some chopped, dried fruit like apricots will make no bake chocolate oatmeal cookies a signature cookie! Serve with a green smoothie for a healthy after-school snack!

How to Store Cookies

Keep cookies in a covered container or a zippered bag for up to 2 weeks at room temperature or in the refrigerator.

Time Saving Tips

  • For best results, use a watermelon baller or a small ice cream scoop to get uniform cookies every time.
  • Chilling the cookie dough for at least 20 minutes helps to solidify it before scooping onto the parchment paper.
  • Avoid overloading the cookies with too many add-ins or they won’t hold together like they need to.
