The soft and chewy texture of these cookies is so addicting and perfect. They kind of remind me of my Grandma’s Monster Cookies. Seriously! That chew is soooo good.
To be honest, these cookies don’t come out looking as pretty as some cookie recipes, but sometimes you have to sacrifice looking pretty to be extra chewy and delicious. Trust me when I say they won’t last long. Sooooo good!
FYI: I have also tried these Chewy Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies with white chocolate chips, and they were fantastic!

Frequently Asked Questions About Chewy Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies
Can I use regular Rolled oats or do I have to use quick oats?
Quick oats and steel-cut oats work better than regular rolled oats. Rolled oats will still work, but the cookies will be a little flatter and have a different overall look.
how many cookies does this recipe make?
This recipe makes 3 dozen regular-sized cookies.
what type of chocolate chips do you recommend?
I prefer milk chocolate or white chocolate chips in this recipe. Semi-sweet chips are also a great choice. Another recommendation is to add 1/2 tsp of cinnamon or orange extract and use butterscotch chips.
Can these cookies be frozen?
Yes, they freeze great. First, let them cool completely, and then freeze them in an airtight container. Make sure to separate the layers with wax paper or parchment paper.
If I don’t have brown sugar can I use all white sugar?
Brown sugar is actually an important part of this recipe and makes them extra chewy. If you don’t have any and you still want to try the recipe, you can use all regular granulated sugar and add 1 tbsp of molasses.
