Triple Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Cookies

The cookie monster has landed! Nothing beats a good cookie especially a chocolatey one. After my brownie feast, I moved on to cookies. This is the first of my 'cookie monster adventure' I found this great recipe from the Brown Eyed Baker. Again I reduced the sugar in the recipe and it was still a little too sweet for me. I used to have a very sweet tooth but that seems to have changed recently. Having said that, it was so delicious, I couldn't stop eating them!

Cream butter and sugar, then beat eggs one at a time.
