Exploring the archives, I rediscovered these chocolate oatmeal cookies that I initially published in 2010. They are an adaptation of my favorite oatmeal and raisin cookies. I used to make them for snacks, and then they went into oblivion.
Today, I took them to a barbecue and made ice cream cookie sandwichs, something very popular here in the US. And perfect to mark the beginning of summer.
They are very, very rich and are an excellent snack or to serve with tea. These Chocolate Oatmeal Cookies are double chocolate since you melt chocolate and add cocoa powder. If you eat them warm, the chocolate is semi-melted and glorious.
I doubled the recipe to take to the BBQ, so the pictures show 2 eggs.
