Oatmeal cookies don’t get a lot of attention because they are kind of plain and not very sexy or flashy. They may be a plain jane of the cookie world but popular nonetheless. I would venture to guess that they are the second most popular cookie baked in American home, running a distant #2 to the chocolate chip cookie. Did you know that it’s estimated that 85% of the cookies baked in American home kitchens are chocolate chip?

I love oatmeal cookies…with chocolate chips. Monster cookies are my fave. They have oatmeal, butterscotch chips, M&M’s, choc. chips, and peanut butter. Not so much healthy or economical, but there’s still oatmeal, so they count, right?

My kids are anti-raisin too. I personally could eat a stack of these (with raisins) right now. Good recipe!

I’ve always loved oatmeal cookies. I don’t understand why they don’t get the respect they deserve. Let’s start a campaign to give them their rightful place in the food world, LOL

i wondered where you were going with the rodney dangerfield shout-out, and i wasn’t disappointed. i love your slogans, and yes indeed, if they’re good enough for grandma, they’re good enough for us. and although it goes without saying, your cookies look sensational.

I think those look delish, but the raisins would stop my kids from eating them. Picky kids.

PotBelly’s in DC has the best oatmeal cookies I’ve ever had. There isn’t as much oat as usual and they use chocolate chips instead on raisins. They are awesome. I wouldn’t have the slightest idea how to make them, but I guarantee that your little one would like.
