    I cannot believe how quickly the month of April went by. They say April showers bring May flowers - definitely a true saying. In the DC area we had a lot of rain, but it is so worth it right now. I love going out and seeing all of the beautiful flowers blooming and some already have. Gorgeous.

    That's one thing I absolutely love about spring. Don't you?

    Before you know it Memorial Day will be here and gone, and then it's summer. Time flies. Speaking of time flying, I really need to start working out in the garden.

    Back to the cookies, shall we?

    I know you will love these cookies because who doesn't love a thick and chewy oatmeal cookie that is loaded with chocolate chunks and a lot of oatmeal. I love them! Even if you aren't a huge oatmeal cookie lover, I think you will love them because of the added chocolate.

    Chocolate really does make everything better. Not only are they delicious, but they are a super easy oatmeal chocolate chunk cookie recipe.

    I will let you thought, that this recipe does make a lot of cookies - approximately 3 dozen of medium-to-large cookies. That just means that we are going to have cookies around here for awhile. The hubby appreciates that. Does yours?

    For this recipe you will need softened butter to room temperature, brown sugar, granulated sugar, eggs, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, all-purpose flour, baking soda, salt, and old-fashioned oats.

    If you do not have about 2 hours to let the butter softened to room temperature, you can just pop it into the microwave for about 5 seconds. I noticed in the warmer months that isn't necessary, but only if I am on a time crunch.

      My almost 4 yr old daughter's absolute favorite cookie is oatmeal chocolate chip. I make the Betty Crocker version normally, but I'm going to be making these tomorrow. They look too yummy to pass up.

          They were a huge hit! They reminded me of my favorite, now discontinued Ben and Jerry's flavor- Oatmeal Cookie Chunk ice cream. My husband could hardly wait for them to cool before eating 3 and my daughter was so happy she did a little dance after she ate one. πŸ™‚
