Tips:

  • Use old-fashioned oats: These oats will provide a chewier texture than quick-cooking oats.
  • Don't over-mix the dough: Over-mixing will result in tough cookies.
  • Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Use a cookie scoop to portion the dough: This will help ensure that the cookies are all the same size and shape.
  • Bake the cookies until they are just set: Over-baking will result in dry, crumbly cookies.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before storing them: This will help them keep their shape and prevent them from becoming too soft.
