This cookie is very rich! I could only eat one and a half and usually i can eat a dozen :). Making these i only used half a mint for each cookie because i think i made the cookies smaller and anymore mint would have been over powering. I crushed up candy cane and sprinkled it on top of some of them and put some CANDY cane in the dough of others and baked them. I also tried usuing different mints (misty mints) to melt on top which were green, pink yellow and orange. They looked really pretty with the candy cane sprinkles. I melted 2-3 of these on top since they were smaller and found that 2 little mints works just fine. Thanks for the recipe though. It can be tweaked in so many different way! Next time i might try melting a chocolate caramel on top and put chunks of white chocolate in the batter!

I made these with butter instead of the oil because i did'nt have any good oil. I also added a tsp of cinnamon and used large oatmeal flakes. These were delicious. My 2 year son and I enjoyed them :).

I absolutely love this recipe with the modifications suggested by ( Fervent Frugal Foodie ) I also used large flaked oats (not the instant kind!) and MINI semi sweet choco chips and added 2 or more large tblspoons of peanut butter to creamed mixture(just because i love a hint of peanut in everything). These baked at 335 for 12 minutes were unbelievabley good. They are chewy and extremely sweet so I would suggest if you don't like sweet cookies to leave out half a cup of sugar - be it brown or white. I didn't add any salt either because of the peanut butter and butter i used was salted. I tried making these cookies right a way and with dough that sat in the fridge and i couldnt tell a difference either way. I also made my cookies farely large and squished them down a bit after they came out of the oven which for me worked fine! My 2 year old LOVES these oaty cookies. I am going to try making them next time with 1/2 apple sauce and 1/2butter and minus a 1/2c of sugar :)!! THANKS FOR THESE .. This is my new MAIN oatmeal cookie!
