Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies

I had the day off of work because of the snow today, which is a perfect excuse to bake some cookies. I've been craving chocolate chip cookies, and I decided to make a slightly healthier version and throw in some oatmeal. I used a recipe that I got from  How To Cook Everything: Simple Recipes for Great Food. This is one of my favorite cookbooks to refer to for the basics. 

The cookies turned out to be surprisingly fluffy- I don't know if the photo does them justice. They tasted more like a light cake than a chewy cookie. Since I tend to prefer my cookies chewy, I'll probably try a different recipe the next time a cookie craving hits. Still, there aren't too many cookies that I'll turn down...
