OATMEAL CHOCOLATE CHIP COCONUT COOKIE BARS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a metal 9X13-inch pan with parchment and lightly grease with cooking spray (see note for other types of pans).
• Add the oats, flour, baking soda, and salt to a blender and pulse until coarsely blended. The texture of the oats should be finer than quick oats but not as fine as flour. Set aside.
• To a large bowl, add the melted butter, brown sugar, egg, egg yolk, and vanilla and stir with a wooden spoon or rubber spatula until the ingredients are well combined and the batter lightens a bit in color.
• Add the dry ingredients, coconut, and chocolate chips and mix.
• Press the batter evenly into the prepared pan. Bake for 20 minutes until set around the edges but still slightly soft in the center. It's ok if you need to add additional baking time, just keep an eye on the bars - they are better just slightly under baked.

CHEWY CHOCOLATE CHIP OATMEAL COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
• In a large bowl, cream together the butter, brown sugar, and white sugar until smooth. Beat in eggs one at a time, then stir in vanilla. Combine the flour, baking soda, and salt; stir into the creamed mixture until just blended. Mix in the quick oats, walnuts, and chocolate chips. Drop by heaping spoonfuls onto ungreased baking sheets.
• Bake for 12 minutes in the preheated oven. Allow cookies to cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

CHOCOLATE CHIP BLENDED OATMEAL COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
• In a large bowl with a handheld electric mixer or in a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, add the butter, brown sugar, granulated sugar, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Mix well until light and fluffy, 1-2 minutes, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
• Add the eggs and vanilla. Mix until well-combined, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
• Measure the oats into a blender or food processor and process until the oats are blended into a coarse powder.
• Add the oats and flour to the bowl and mix until a few dry streaks remain. Add the chocolate chips and mix until evenly combined.
• Scoop the cookie onto the prepared baking sheets (I use a #40 cookie scoop - it holds a couple tablespoons of dough), spacing them a few inches apart. See note for making/baking large bakery-style cookies.
• Bake for 10-12 minutes until just lightly golden around the edges but not too dark. Remove to a cooling rack and let cool completely.
