So many cookies?! There is no such thing! I was planning on using another recipe for these cookies, but saw this one on the back of the oatmeal canister and decided to go for it. The cookies were okay, nothing spectacular about them. They had the crunchy exterior and soft middle that I like though. I made these for someone else so I wanted a basic cookie and that’s what I got. The recipe stated that it made 6 dozen, but I only got 4 out of it.
