Growing up there was pretty much just a handful of cookies that we (as in the royal ‘we’ that would pretty much just be ‘me’) would make at home to satisfy the old sweet tooth. No Bake Cookies, Sugar Cookies and Snickerdoodles were all part of the arsenal. But none got as much action as this recipe did in my teenage cookie craving days.
I’m pretty surprised it’s taken me this long to pull this recipe out of the proverbial hat and post on the blog. But in reality, I’ve been giving this recipe the cold shoulder while I’ve been on the search for the ‘perfect’ chocolate chip cookie. You know, the one that makes me weak in the knees, the one that has me reaching for a glass of the coldest mug of dunkable milk.
After making these babies again for the first time in several years, I’m convinced I was looking in all the wrong places, and that like so many things in life, I had the ‘perfect’ formula in front of me all along.
This recipe came from my mom’s friend Annette and was the only chocolate chip cookie I made until the age of about 26 since it was the only chocolate chip cookie recipe I could fathom to exist. Until the afore-mentioned quest led me astray. Until I FINALLY experienced for myself that the grass is not always greener.
Oh jeez. Such vivid memories of me in my mom’s kitchen, packing the brown sugar into a measuring cup straight from the old blue tupperware container with a slice of bread atop to keep the sugar soft. The old, browned cookie sheets that I recently discovered my mom STILL has (I’m pretty sure she still has the blue tupperware too) and the old yellow Oster hand mixer that would barely churn through the dough once the oatmeal was added so that I always ended up mixing with the wooden spoon at the end instead.
The unique thing about this recipe, so far as I can tell, is the instruction to dissolve the baking soda in water before adding it to the mix. I’ve seen a lot of recipes for cookies (thank you Maria) and this is one technique I haven’t seen before. But I always did it because the recipe said so. I think now it must help get a head start on activating the soda. If anyone has insight, please share so I can sleep at night.
My favorite part of the recipe? How chewy and soft these honey childs are thanks to the 4 cups of oatmeal and the crunch of pecans. They’re almost more like what healthified granola bars only wish they could become when they grown up.
All of us are grown up now, including that old hand mixer that’s been replaced with a slick KitchenAid variety, a favorite of my mom’s for mashed potatoes instead of cookies these days.
And now you have your chance to win your own KitchenAid Artisan 5-Quart Stand Mixer thanks to a group of bloggers who think you need to help your kitchen grow up a little as well and put on it’s big girl appliances.

Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies
Ingredients
- 2 cups unsalted butter
- 1 ½ cups granulated sugar
- 1 ½ cups dark brown sugar
- 4 eggs
- 3 tablespoons hot water
- 2 teaspoons baking soda
- 1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
- 3 cups all purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons kosher salt
- 1 package semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 ½ cups chopped pecans
- 4 cups quick oats
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
-
Cream the butter and sugars in the bowl of a stand mixer set to medium-high until creamy, light and fluffy, about 3 to 4 minutes. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well in between additions. Sift the flour and salt together. In a ramekin or small bowl dissolve the baking soda in the hot water and add ⅓ of mixture to creamed mix, alternating with 1 cup of dry ingredients and repeat until . Reduce the mixer speed to low and add the chocolate chips, pecans and quick oats and mix until just combined.
-
Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper and drop a heaping tablespoon of dough onto the cookie sheet about 2 inches apart from each other. Bake one sheet of cookies at a time for 10 minutes or until just golden. Remove from oven and let cool on the cookie sheet for 3-4 minutes then move to a wire cooling rack until completely cooled.

xo
Yvette N. says
I think the first recipe I’d make with a new mixer would be your featured Oatmeal Chocolate Chip
Cookie. The idea that you dissolve the baking soda in water is fascinating to me, too.
Erika-Southern Souffle says
Oh My Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookie!! I would eat the entire batch all by myself!! No shame.. no shame at all.. :)
Karen says
Cookies. Lots and lots of cookies.
Tracey Davidson says
Yum! These cookies sound delicious! I think the first thing I’d make, though, would be my mother’s recipe for 7-Up Pound Cake. All that creaming together of butter, eggs and sugar would put this KitchenAid to good use!
Barbara @ Barbara Bakes says
I haven’t baked enough cookies lately. These sound perfect.
Andrianna says
Oatmeal raisin cookies are always the right way to go. Maybe dipped in a little (or a lot!) of dark chocolate.
Marissa says
I would make peanut butter cookies! I made cookies over the weekend and mixing by hand is quite a pain!
Chelsea says
I would make strawberry muffins!
Tatiana says
I would make pretzel dough because I want to make a cheeseburger on a pretzel bun. Everytime I see it on the Food Network, it gets my mouth watering!

gluten-free chocolate chip almond cookies, please!!! loaded with lots of dark chocolate chunks. yum!

Ally's Sweet & Savory Eats says
First I would give my old KitchenAid to my mom, who desperately wants one….and then with my new one I’d tackle homemade bread!
Rachel @ Baked by Rachel says
I’m so glad you used chocolate chips instead of raisins!
Robin says
The first thing I would make is my favorite recipe: whole wheat molasses bread.

Oatmeal crasin cookies!
dana says

Chung-Ah | Damn Delicious says
Did you bring any of these cookies with you to Carmel Valley Ranch? :)
Cori says
My moms recipe for whip cream frosting on chocolate cake. Its a very touchy recipe and a hand mixer doesn’t work.
Emily says
These are my favorite cookies–well, at least one of them. And I’m pretty sure this recipe would be the first I’d make with the mixer. Or maybe my favorite peanut butter cookies. Or chocolate toffee almond cookies.
May says
I would probably make a huge batch of Momofuku Milk Bar Fruity Pebble Crunch Cookies! Trying to cream the butter and sugar for cookie recipes has already destroyed one of my hand mixers and the other one is dangerously close.
Karen says
As a kid my mom would would make a double (sometimes triple) batch of oatmeal cookies with the recipe on the side of the Quaker Oats box. Some of the dough got baked as is but from there the dough it got divided up- some got raisins, some got nuts, some coconut and the largest some got chocolate chips. They were a super hit at our house with each of us having their favorites.
I’m all in for trying these.
Laura (Tutti Dolci) says
Loving the 4 cups of oats in these!
Jennifer C. says
I would make cake with buttercream frosting
Stephie @ Eat Your Heart Out says
I have a super retro date bread recipe from my great-grandmother, and it also calls for dissolving the baking soda. Maybe it’s just a retro recipe thing? Hard to say, but I always do it, too. Guess we just inherently trust those old, stand-by recipes. :-)
Shawna says
Homemade cookies!
patti says
Those cookies are delicious and I’ve tried many recipes through the years, be careful not to over bake them, I remove them just before they look completely baked, but I prefer my cookies to be soft. Yes I still have the blue bowl with the bread slice on top of the brown sugar, it goes perfectly with my slightly askew whisk. Your cookies look beautiful Heidi, I’ll have two for breakfast.
Kiran @ KiranTarun.com says

NY Times chocolate chip cookies!
Sarah K. @ The Pajama Chef says
several of my grandma’s recipes for quick breads have you dissolve the baking soda in hot water. i’ve done some research and apparently baking soda used to be single acting but now it’s double acting (when mixed w/ wet ingredients & when baking). so i think the head-start thing is right on, at least back in the day. another response i’ve found has been to fully incorporate it in the dough (esp. when mixing by hand) or that baking soda used to be more clumpy… interesting stuff!
Carrie K says
Im not gonna lie…i would make these oatmeal cookies ASAP :)

I have tried making these cookies three times now, and when mine come out they are nothing like the pics. I followed the directions exactly. They spread really bad and I was wondering if maybe the recipe should say 2 sticks of butter not 2 cups?? Any help would be great! I want mine to come out like the pictures :)

I don’t see the widget for the giveaway – there’s a hyperlink for Rafflecopter, but it doesn’t go to the webform for this contest. What am I missing?
