Loving every moment now. Looking after maha, feeding her, dressing her, playing with her, making her sleep, laughing with her, for me every moment is precious now. The best moment in my life is staying beside her in the morning, waiting for her to wake up, and the moment she wakes up she throws a innocent and the most beautiful smile which is so precious..I can cherish all my life with that smile..

Hi aarthi, used same measurements except replaced half of maida with wheat flour. Mycookies didn't expand at all. Can u tell me what has gone wrong. Tastewise they r gud and crunchy..
@Madhumay be u have added less rising agent.
Hi Aarthi,
I did it today.. loved the taste but something went wrong. Spread too much and the dough was watery. I pulsed the oats 5 times and I didn't make any changes. . Please help.
@GEEi think you must have added too much milk
Hi,
These cookies turned out very yummy and crunchy.Baked them for my toddler and husband. We took these cookies with us to munch on a long road trip and we really enjoyed them. I added a egg to this batter, reduced the sugar a bit and used lindt chocolate 70% dark.
I overcrowded the tray a bit , put 9 instead of 6 cookies on a tray and so they stuck a bit together since they spread a lot.
I had to cut the cookies to seperate them and the end result was still yummy. They remind me of the big cookies available at Subway.Thanks a lot for the post, Aarti
Hi arthi, I tried ur oats chocolate chip cookie. The cookie turned out chewy n not chrispy or crunchy. Can u suggest me where I went wrong
One more thing I forgot to add. I couldn't bake cookies for more than 10 mins as it started to burn. I removed it within 10 mins n the cookies were chewy n not crunchy or chrispy. Top part is very soft only bottom is little hard. But overall taste is very good. But don't know how to make it chrispy. Should I reduce temperature n bake it for more time. Pls help
@Gomathy Shri Venugopalanyes reduce the temp and try it..
Thanks arthi. Will try n let u know the results
Hi Arthi,
thanks for sharing the recipe. I'm making this for the second time. Sorry to say that the first time it didn't came out well. It was more like a cracker.i don't know where I went wrong. But it tasted good. So today I'm trying again and this time I freeze the dough for a while before shaping it into a ball. Let's wait and see. Fingers crossed.
Hi Aarthi,
well… The end result was very crunchy and crispy. I reduced the time. .. baked for 15 minutes and I made 1 and quarter inches of balls. Came out around 40 cookies. Thanks again. .
