I made these to give out as a Mother's Day treat. I gave some to my hairdresser and Marie. My hairdresser liked them and said she was happy I brought them in because they were the only things she ate the whole day. She was so busy she couldn't go out to get food and snacked on the cookies.
Yummy Linda. Never saw Chocolate Oatmeal cookies before. The cherry chips make them so colorful. I have made cookies with a cake mix before and they were great. Will have to try this one.
ReplyDeleteGirlfriend- these are easy! Ted's wife Marie LOVES them.
