Fantastic! The only thing I would do is cut back the oats a bit next time. After chilling, the dough was a bit hard to keep together in a ball. I added butterscotch chips for some extra flavor and and texture. My family can't stop eating them! I will absolutely make these again.

This recipe is magical--I'm nor sure why it tastes so much better than the suggested recipes on the back of oatmeal containers (being that it is such a similar recipe) but somehow I managed to make the best oatmeal cookies I've ever tasted by following this recipe! These were delicious~ :)

I made these 2 days ago and they are the best oatmeal cookies. I didn't chill the dough though and had no problems with it.

Very yummy! One thing - I used Irish quick cook oats, and I only chilled the dough for 20 minutes. The first batch didn't turn out very well because the cookies were too gritty; however, the second and third batch were perfect because they were sitting in the fridge while they first cooked. So if you're going to use Irish or Scottish oats, make sure you let the dough rest in the fridge for at least an hour like the recipe suggests.

Made as recipe stated but couldn't find my cinnemon, so used a cinnemon sugar mix instead and still turned out fabulous! Made them 2 days ago and they r still soft and just as good as day 1! I also added some chocolate chips to mine!

Great recipe! I needed a basic recipe for oatmeal so that I could "play" with it a bit. I added raisins, chocolate chips and some walnuts! I didn't refrigerate them and didn't flatten them with a fork in sugar. Just dropped them normally. They came out great!

These cookies were incredibly good! I did make a few changes, I cut both the brown and white sugar down and used 3/4 cup of each. My son is allergic to eggs, so I replaced the eggs with a total of 1/2 cup of unsweetened applesauce. I divided the dough and made several varieties. A batch with mini Enjoy Life semi sweet Chocolate chips, another with choc. chips and dried cranberries, another with raisins. Also a set with white chocolate chips and finally white choc chips with cranberries. A real keeper of a recipe!

All I can say is WOW! OMG! I wasn't going to review this recipe at all. I didn't even have an Allrecipes account, but decided to just to let everyone know how great these are. I made these and tried the dough, just to make sure they tasted amazing, and I couldn't even stop eating the dough! However, I did manage to stop myself from eating all of the dough and baked some off. These are HANDS DOWN THE BEST oatmeal cookies I have ever had and ever will have. This is a PERFECT recipe! Thanks sooo much for sharing this with the rest of the world!

The BEST! I followed the recipe exactly, but didn't leave them cool on the baking sheet because they started to stick. This is the best oatmeal cookie I've ever baked! Thank you BITTERSWEET1 for sharing.

This recipe rocks! I did a few little changes though. I used a hot cereal that contained oats and barley and other healthy stuff and used 2 cups of that, and 1 cup quick oats. I also threw in a awesome fruit mix I got at Trader Joes that had pomegranate, raspberries, and black currants. I did also use half white flour and half wheat. Wow, it turned out amazing and I had a bunch of people ask me for the recipe! Yummmm..

This was my first time baking cookies and I have to say, they came out FANTASTIC! The recipe was so easy to follow. I followed it exactly but added 1 cup of raisins to half the batch and 1 cup of semi sweet chocolate chips to second half. Delicious! And as others have posted, I got way more than 24 cookies! Over 60!! I'm definitely making these again. Oh I pre-soaked the raisins, made such a difference! I made the cookies last night and this morning they are still soooo soft. Love this recipe!!!

These turned out exactly how I imagined that they would - oatmealy and soft. We added 1/2 cup of shredded coconut to the recipe and it gave it that extra oomph to it that we loved!

THE best and simplest oatmeal cookie recipe out there. I never cool the dough and get fantastic results every single time I make these cookies. You can't go wrong - soft on the inside and crispy on the outside.

Awesome cookies. The only change I made was that I didn't have one hour to cool the cookie dough so I put it in the freezer for 20 minutes. Worked great. This is definitely a keeper.
