Dark Chocolate Oat Cookies Recipe by Bakeomaniac

These divinely decadent and chocolatey Dark Chocolate Oat Cookies have both a fair share of nutrients from the oats as well as an amazing flavour from the chocolate chips and cocoa powder added.

With its slightly soft but chewy texture (similar to Subway’s cookies), a whiff of butter and the rich chocolate flavour, it is no wonder that these cookies are so addictive and you will definitely find yourself unable to stop at just one! In addition, these chocolate oat cookies will serve either as a good addition to breakfast or for tea!

Decadent and soft, the addition of oats to substitute for flour and sugar makes a healthier touch while still staying delicious as always!
