Happy Belated Easter! I hope everyone had a wonderful day yesterday. I sadly did not get to spend Easter with my family this year because the drive to LA from SF is a bit too far for one weekend 🙁
I made these chocolate oatmeal cookies with walnuts for my meeting tonight (any excuse to bake cookies, right?!). I always wanted to try chocolate oatmeal cookies, and I decided to leave out chocolate chips because I thought they would be too rich. I love the combination of walnuts and chocolate, mmmmm <3

I made exactly by recipe and they were too dry and way too crumbly. Never make again. You probably won’t post this complaint.
Hi Judy! So sorry they didn’t turn out for you ;(
I added instant coffee powder and dried cranberries too, for a yummy mocha flavor and burst of tart w the cranberries.
