Author: Barbara Schieving

Ingredients 

  • 1 cup 2 sticks unsalted butter
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 ¼ cups old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 1 3- to 4-ounce bar milk chocolate, frozen
  • 1 ½ cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • ¾ cup M&M’s
  • ½ cup walnuts finely chopped (optional)

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
  • In a large bowl, using a hand mixer, cream together the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar. Add the eggs and vanilla and mix until just combined.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, baking soda, and baking powder. Place the oats in a blender and grind until fine. It’s okay to have some chunks. Whisk the oats into the flour mixture and then slowly stir the flour mixture into the sugar mixture.
  • Place the frozen chocolate bar in the blender of food processor, and pulse about 5 to 10 times to grind it. Stir the chocolate flakes, chocolate chips, and chocolate candies into the dough. If desire, add the walnuts and stir until just combined.
  • Using a medium cookie scoop (about 2 to 3 tablespoons), scoop the cookie dough portions onto the prepared baking sheet at least 1 inch apart.
  • Bake for 8 to 11 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown. They should look a little doughy in the middle. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes and then transfer to a wire rack. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
