Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies
I love these oatmeal chocolate chip cookies. They are rich, soft and chewy with a crunchy addition of pecans. We love to make cookies because, well, cookies. These have become a household favorite. These cookies are great for cookies at home, at a party or for a bake sale. Everyone is going to love these cookies.
Can I Freeze This Dough?
I love it when I am able to make cookies ahead of time and then have them whenever I want them. There is nothing worse than wanting fresh baed cookies but no having the time to make them. I love to freeze cookie dough because it makes it easy to have cookies whenever I want them. There are 2 ways that I freeze cookie dough. Sometimes I freeze the finished dough. This is just the cookie dough batter that I wrap well in plastic wrap and then put it in a freezer bag. The other way I freeze cookie dough is to scoop the dough into cookie balls. Then I freeze them on a plate of a cookie sheet. Once they have frozen, I put them in a freezer bag. By freezing them first I am able to take a few cookie dough balls out instead of all of them. I can make as few or as many I want.
What’s the Best Chocolate for the Best Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies?
When I make these cookies, I like to use 2 different types of chocolate. I use melted milk chocolate and I also use semi-sweet chocolate chips. The combination of these two chocolates makes these cookies absolutely decadent.
How Long do These Cookies Last?
When you make these cookies it is important that you store them properly so that they do not get stale and go bad. Once they have cooled store them in an airtight container or in a freezer bag. When the cookies are stored properly, they should last up to a week. If you find the cookies are starting to get stale or want to have more of the fresh-baked taste you can warm them slightly in the microwave. Only heat the cookies for a few seconds or else they will become very hard.

In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, cream butter, and brown sugar together, about 1 minute. Add egg, and beat until combined, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
