Made these chocolate chunk & almond oatmeal cookies again today for those lazybums coming over to watch recorded episodes of thelittlenyonya. Crispy at the edges and almost chewy in the middle, these delectable cookies are chockful of dark chocolate chunk and chopped almonds.
Stella baked Devil's Food Cupcakes for us to take to the airport. Thank goodness for those, if not I wouldn't have survived the flight. (gross airplane food) They were really good!
Chocolate Chunk & Almond Oatmeal Cookies
250g rolled oats
100g plain flour
1/2 t baking soda
1/2 t salt
170g unsalted butter
180g Demarara sugar
1 egg
2 t pure vanilla extract
1 cup dark chocolate, chopped
120g almonds, toasted & chopped
Preheat oven to 350F.Mix together oats, flour, baking soda and salt in a large bowl. Mix in chocolate chunks and almonds, toss gently to coat. In a seperate bowl, cream butter & sugar on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 3 min. Add egg and vanilla, beating to combine. Fold in dry ingredients by hand until incorporated. (Using a mixer here, might cause over-mixing)
Portion batter using an ice-cream scoop/teaspoon onto a baking sheet. Flatten the cookies slightly. Bake the cookies for about 10-15 min, depending on the size, until light golden brown. Cool on a wire rack.
