Nothing is quite as comforting as a big, warm chewy chocolatey cookie. Even better is when you find a recipe for Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies that will blow your mind. To me, something about oatmeal is just comforting, but when you add chocolate chips to a tasty oatmeal cookie dough (or BIG Hershey kisses inside cookie dough!), it is comforting AND amazing.

This recipe has been a family favorite cookie recipe of ours for years. This is the best old-fashioned oatmeal cookie recipe with chocolate chips, and I am happy to share it with you!

Can you make oatmeal chocolate chip cookies with instant quick oats?

Yes you can! In fact,  you can use quick oats when you make plain oatmeal cookies, oatmeal raisin cookies or oatmeal chocolate chip cookies.

Ingredients:

  • 3/4 shortening {Crisco}
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tsp. vanilla
  • 1 cup flour
  • 1 tsp. salt
  • 1/2 tsp. baking soda
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 3 cups  quick oats

Cream together:  The shortening (Crisco), brown sugar, sugar, egg, water and Vanilla.

Blend and then add to above mixture: Flour, salt, baking soda,  and quick oats. Turn off mixer, and hand stir in milk chocolate chips.

You might be surprised to learn that these quick oatmeal cookies have no butter, yet they taste very buttery. Nothing is better than a yummy, buttery cookie, am I right?

Directions:
Drop large spoonfuls onto ungreased cookie sheet (or a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper). I typically use one of the large cookie scoops for these. Bake @ 350 degrees for 10 minutes, or until they are the desired texture.

I have tried plenty of oatmeal cookie recipes over the years, but this one is my favorite by far. Whether you want a big, thick, chewy oatmeal chocolate chip cookie, or a crispy oatmeal cookie, you can have either with this cookie recipe. Just make smaller scoops for a crispy cookie, or you can even make large scoops and just cook them a bit longer.
