how to cook Best Chocolate Oatmeal Cookies?

STEP 1

To start, preheat your oven to 180°C (350⁰F). Grab a medium bowl and pour in some flour. Add baking powder and sift cocoa powder through a sieve into the bowl. Give it a good mix.

TIPS: Keep in mind that the color of your cookies will vary depending on the quality of the cocoa powder you use. If you want a lighter shade, go for more light cocoa powder, and if you prefer a darker hue, opt for the darker ones.

STEP 2

Now, take a large bowl and crack in the eggs. Add sugar and beat it with a mixer until it becomes a fluffy pale mass.

STEP 3

Next, pour the flour mixture into the egg-sugar mixture. Then, pour in the melted butter. Mix everything together with a mixer at low speed until it becomes smooth.

TIPS: Melt your butter either on the stove or in the microwave – whichever is more convenient for you.

TIPS: Instead of using butter, you can opt for good quality margarine. It works just as well! But keep in mind that margarine contains salt. So, you might want to reduce the amount of salt in the recipe. Just a little heads up!

STEP 4

Time to add some oatmeal to the creamy sugar mixture. Grab a wooden spatula and mix it all together until it’s well combined. Let the dough sit for about 10 minutes.

TIPS: When making the dough, keep in mind that the oatmeal will soak up the liquid and make the dough thicker. The thickness of the dough will depend on the quality of the oatmeal you use.

STEP 5

Now, it’s time to shape the cookies. Take small portions of the chocolate-oat mixture and roll them into balls. Grease a baking sheet with butter and line it with parchment paper. Place the cookies on the prepared baking sheet, making sure to leave at least 2 cm of space between each one.

STEP 6

Make a small pit in the center of each cookie.

TIPS: To create a pit, you can use any object with the desired diameter, such as a small glass or even your own fingers.

STEP 7

Pop the baking sheet with the cookies into the preheated oven at 180°C (350⁰F) and bake them for about 15 minutes.

STEP 8

Once they’re done, leave the cookies on the baking sheet for 5 minutes. Then, transfer them to a wire rack and let them cool completely.

STEP 9

Once they’re cooled, go ahead and decorate the oatmeal cookies with some chocolate eggs.

STEP 10

Now, it’s time to enjoy the Best Chocolate Oatmeal Cookies with a nice cup of tea. Bon appétit!
