Giant Skippy Oat Cookies Recipes

GIANT OATMEAL-RAISIN COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line two baking sheets with parchment; set aside.
• In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream together butter and sugars on medium speed until pale and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Reduce speed to low. Beat in eggs, one at a time; add vanilla.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, salt, cinnamon, baking soda, and baking powder. With mixer on low, gradually add flour mixture and beat until well combined. Beat in oats and raisins until just combined.
• Arrange 3/4-cup balls of dough on prepared baking sheets, about 3 inches apart. Use the palm of your hand to flatten into 4-inch rounds. Bake, rotating halfway through, until golden brown, about 16 minutes. Let cool on sheets 2 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

BIG GIANT OATMEAL COOKIE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Line a cookie sheet with parchment.
• Melt your butter in a heat-safe mixing bowl. Note: It doesn't need to be ALL the way. See photos for an example- I've found the best stage is when about half the butter is liquid, but the rest is super soft. Like the texture of pudding. You want it to easily stir completely smooth when you touch it.
• truction-step-3″>2. Mix in brown sugar, white sugar, egg yolk and vanilla.
• truction-step-4″>3. Measure your flour by spooning lightly into your measuring cup and then leveling with a knife. Sprinkle flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt on top and then mix together. Stir in oats and chocolate chips. (Or raisins, if you are using those, instead)
• uction-step-5″>4. Form dough into one large ball and place on prepared baking sheet. Gently press down to about 3/4 inch thick. I like to press a few additional chocolate chips into the top of the dough before baking.
• tion-step-6″>5. Note: All ovens cook differently and baking time will vary depending on how much you press your cookie down. Set a timer for 10 minutes so you can keep a close watch for the remainder of the baking time. Bake for 11-14 minutes, until edges are set and center looks set, but still soft. Let cool for 10-15 minutes before using an extra large spatula to transfer to a cooling rack.

GIANT OAT COOKIES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375°F. In large bowl, beat butter and sugar with electric mixer on medium speed until blended. Beat in oil, vanilla and eggs until well mixed. On low speed, beat in flour, oats, baking soda and salt until dough forms. Stir in cereal.
• For each cookie, roll 1/3 cup of dough into a ball; place balls 2 inches apart on 2 ungreased cookie sheets.
• Bake 9 to 11 minutes or until light brown. Cool 2 minutes; remove from cookie sheets to cooling racks. Cool completely, about 20 minutes. Store in tightly covered container.

GIANT LOADED OATMEAL COOKIE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350˚ F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Beat the butter, granulated sugar and brown sugar in a large bowl with a mixer on medium-high speed until smooth and light, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the peanut butter and mix until smooth. Scrape down the bowl. Add the egg and vanilla and beat until smooth, about 1 minute.
• Reduce the mixer speed to low. Add the flour, baking soda and salt and mix just until combined. Add the oats and mix just until combined.
• Combine the dried cranberries, chocolate chips and peanuts in a small bowl. Add all but a few tablespoons of the cranberry mixture to the dough and mix just until combined. Refrigerate the dough until slightly firm, about 15 minutes.
• Turn out the dough onto the baking sheet. Press into a 9-inch round, about 1/2 inch thick. Sprinkle the top with the reserved dried cranberry mixture and press to adhere. Bake until the cookie is crisp and golden around the edges and set in the center, 22 to 24 minutes. Transfer the pan to a rack and let the cookie cool completely on the pan. Cut into wedges.

SUPER-LOADED OATMEAL COOKIES

Steps:

• Whisk the all-purpose flour, whole-wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon and salt in a medium bowl.

Roll the dough into balls (about 2 tablespoons each) and arrange 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets. Bake, switching the pans halfway through, until the cookies are golden and dry around the edges, 18 to 20 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes on the baking sheets, then transfer to racks to cool completely.

• Heat oven to 375°.
• In large bowl, combine sugars, margarine, peanut butter, vanilla and egg; beat well.
• Lightly spoon flour into measuring cup and level off.
• Add flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt; mix well.
• If you are making the large cookies, it helps to chill the dough for an hour or so at this point, before shaping. It seems to make a firmer cookie--less likely to break. If you aren't concerned about that, you can skip this step.
• Shape about 1/4 cup dough (for 3-inch cookie) into a ball and place 4 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheet (6 per sheet).

• Parchment makes for easy cookie removal and cleanup, but it's not a necessity.
• If you don't use parchment, let the cookies cool directly on the baking sheet for two minutes before transferring them to a cooling rack.

Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in vanilla. Reduce speed to low and gradually add flour mixture, beating until just incorporated. Beat in chocolate, pecans, and coconut until just combined. (Dough can be made up to this point, covered in plastic, and refrigerated up to 3 days.)
