Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Biscoff Cookies

Medically reviewed by Christiana George Updated Date: December 17, 2022

I’m was in the mood for cookies. I am always on the look out for new chocolate chip cookie recipes. I found one on healthyfoodforliving.com for Chocolate Chip Oatmeal cookies. I love chocolate chips and I love oatmeal, so I gave it a try. I just adjusted the recipe one tiny but. I substituted 3/4 Biscoff Spread for the 3/4 cup light brown sugar it asked for.

Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Biscoff Cookie

2 sticks unsalted butter, softened
3/4 cup granulated sugar
3/4 cup packed light brown sugar (I used Biscoff Spread)
2 large eggs
1 tablespoon pure vanilla
2 1/2 cups all purpose flour
1 cup rolled oats (I used Quick Oats)
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon kosher salt
2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips ( I used Dark chocolate chips)

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. and line a baking sheet with a silpat liner or parchment paper.

2. Cream your butter and sugars into a stand or electric mixer until well combined. Add eggs and vanilla mixing until well combined.

3. Place flour, oats, baking soda and salt into a large bowl. Mix to combine. Slowly add to wet ingredients along with chocolate chips, mixing until just combined. Scoop dough onto prepared baking sheet about 1 inch apart. Press cookies down to about 1/2 inch before baking. Bake for 11-14 minutes, until edges start to turn golden brown. Let cool on baking sheet for 10 minutes before transferring to cooling rack. Let cool completely.

Enjoy!
I think they came out pretty tasty. Gotta love Biscoff!

When my daughter was a baby I had brought her to have her picture taken, but I was not happy with the results. So I decided to take matters into my own hands and try to take pictures of her at home. I had just bought a new DSLR camera, all I needed was some kind of background. One of the backgrounds I loved was a blanket of flowers. My first thought was, heck, I can make one of those!

So I went to the craft store and bought tons of huge pink roses. They felt soft and fluffy, so I thought they would be perfect for my daughter to lay on.

I bought a mix of dark pink and light pink roses. Then I started thinking about what to glue them to that I could drape over my reading chair in my bedroom to take the pictures. It had to be something flexible, but sturdy. Light bulb! I asked my mom if she had any vinyl tablecloths she could spare. It didn’t really matter the pattern on the vinyl side, because I was going to glue the flowers to the felt side. This one happens to be fall one.

Then I went to get my glue gun. I took all the roses off their stems and started gluing them one by one to the white felt side of the table cloth. I glued them a little ways apart to kept the feel of them soft an pliable. I needed my daughter to be happy and comfy when I laid her on it, not crying.

It was a pretty easy project and I received a lot of compliments on it. I even had a photographer friend ask where I had bought the blanket when she saw the photo because she was looking for one. She was impressed when I told her I had made it myself. It pays to be crafty.

Here is the completed project. I ended up taking some cute pictures of my daughter when she was eight months and used it again last year when she was four (she was jealous that I was taking pics of her baby brother, so I had to take some pics of her too). I am in no way a professional photographer, but I was very happy with my pictures and at least I can say I did it myself.
