After 24 long years of baking, I might be finished testing oatmeal cookies. How do I know this? Patrick, who does not like oatmeal cookies AT ALL, and who will never ever ever eat one under no circumstances whenever I make a batch, first, tried one (gasp) and second, said "These are pretty good for oatmeal cookies" (jaw dropping).
I made these to bring to an all day lab meeting, figuring that oatmeal can be eaten in the morning (it qualifies as breakfast, right?) or in the afternoon (it is in cookie form after all). With no raisins, which I found out was a plus, I made two kinds: walnut chocolate chip and white chocolate - craisin. I was impartial to the walnut chocolate chip, and I noticed that those went faster.
It was also nice to have people eat these cookies instead of the desserts that the Washington Duke Inn gave us (must be something they put in those Dook cookies). I will definitely be making these again and might be done looking for THE oatmeal recipe (until the next one comes my way).
