This recipe is far and away the best chocolate chip cookie recipe ever discovered. The blended oatmeal and grated Hershey Bar give the cookies a truly unique and delicious taste. This recipe has oatmeal, but these cookies don't taste like any oatmeal cookie you have tried before. The oatmeal is blended and combined with the flour, so it changes the taste of the cookie dough. I prefer to use macadamia nuts, but any nuts will work. You can experiment and add things like cranberries or raisins.
