I promised to post my recipe for crispy oatmeal cookies more than a month ago, but many things happened in between (beautiful things luckily) so I didn’t manage to bring it to you. I’ll update you on what’s changing in my personal life, which I believe will also affect Mandarina a lot on the coming months, while for the recipe you don’t have to wait that long.
These oatmeal cookies are so simple, yet delicious. They’re crispy and have a strong nutty taste. I love to dip them on dark chocolate for an extra layer of flavor, but this is totally optional. You may easily double the recipe and make a big batch to enjoy during the week or share with your friends. They’re always a big hit among mines, so I guess they’ll amaze yours too.

- Use an ice-cream scoop or two tablespoons to shape the cookies.
