Notes
Old fashioned or rolled oats are best for baking as they will give you the texture of traditional oatmeal cookies. You can use instant oats although the texture will be slightly different. If you don't like the texture of classic oatmeal cookies, or you want a softer cookie, use the quick variety. Do not use steel cut as they will change the texture of these chewy cookies.
Make sure the butter is at room temperature for easy mixing.
Add extra Craisins or white chocolate chips on top of each dough ball for a pop of color. You can also add the extra chips immediately after baking so they won't get too brown in the oven.
