Chewy Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies

I'd like to preface this post by apologizing for the constant changing of my blog background  I'm new to blogging and as you can tell, I'm having a hard time choosing a template design.

With that said...............

............today was the day I made my old faithful cookie recipe. 

Chewy, oatmeal chocolate chip cookies are my favourite cookie of all time.  I have been using this recipe for many years.  It's tried and true and always delicious!
