Ingredients
Instructions

- Combine flour, blended oatmeal, salt, baking powder, and baking soda; add to the creamed mixture.
- Stir in grated Hershey bar, chopped nuts, and chocolate chips.
- Refrigerate the dough for 30 minutes.
- Roll the dough into balls and place on a cookie sheet, 2 inches apart.
- Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 9 to 10 minutes until golden brown.
Tips & Substitutions
For a richer flavor, consider using dark brown sugar instead of light brown sugar. You can also substitute half of the all-purpose flour with whole wheat flour for a different texture. If you don't have a Hershey bar, use chocolate chips for a quicker option. Make sure to chill the dough thoroughly to prevent spreading during baking, similar to techniques used in American recipes.
Serving Suggestions
These cookies are perfect on their own, but you can serve them alongside a tall glass of milk or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an indulgent treat. For a fun twist, pair them with a slice of Aunt Lola's Golden Pound Cake for dessert. They also make a great addition to a cookie platter at gatherings.
Storage & Reheating
Store leftover cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week. For longer storage, you can freeze the cookies in a single layer, then transfer them to a freezer bag. To reheat, place the cookies in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for a few minutes until warmed through.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I make these cookies without nuts?
Yes, you can easily omit the nuts if you prefer a nut-free version. You can also replace them with additional chocolate chips or even dried fruits for added texture and flavor.
What can I use instead of butter?
You can substitute butter with an equal amount of coconut oil or a vegan butter alternative for a dairy-free option. Keep in mind that this may slightly alter the flavor and texture.
How do I know when the cookies are done baking?
The cookies are done when they are golden brown around the edges but still slightly soft in the center. They will continue to cook slightly after removing them from the oven, so avoid overbaking.
