Do you love coffee? Do you love cookies? Do you love chocolate? Do you like them all together!?!? ME TOO! Look no further these cookies have it all. With added oats of course because you know- we need some nutrition! These cookies are delicious and can really hold up to being dipped in a hot cup-o-joe or some good old fashion milk.
