About

Happy Monday! Phew, I totally could NOT think of another name for these..I thought the title was a tad long..my hubby said to call them OPBCCB, and I politely declined ;) Oh well, who cares what, or how long, the name is..these were incredible! I just took a basic chocolate chip cookie recipe and tweaked it a bit, then added peanut butter, oats, and a TON of cinnamon. They sort of reminded me of monster cookies, but not as much add-ins. They were SO good. Definitely a staple go-to recipe for a yummy treat from now on! I think I will always make them in bar form rather than cookie because they just WORK like that..yeah! =) My hubby absolutely loved them, so that's always a good thing! Goodnight everyone!
