Oatmeal Brickle Cookies

These oatmeal brickle cookies are made with toffee bits for a delicious sweet treat. Easy to make, these tasty cookies will be a hit with the whole family!

I was talking with one of my neighbors at our lake cottage about it and she said she would love some good cookie recipes with brickle. I didn’t want to disappoint her, but I had to look up what brickle was. I had heard the term a time or two, but I’ve always referred to it as toffee.

I thought it would be the perfect compliment to oatmeal to create chewy oatmeal brickle cookies. Chris originally said these were his favorite among the Fall Cookie Week contestants, but he started saying that with each cookie he took a bite into, which proves you can never trust a man with 18 dozen cookies around.

How To Make Oatmeal Brickle Cookies

It really couldn’t be simpler to make these yummy cookies!

1. Prep – Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
2. Combine – Combine butter, brown sugar and vanilla until fluffy. Add egg until just combined.
3. Combine Dry Ingredients – Whisk flour, baking soda cornstarch and salt and combine into wet mixture.
4. Add Mix-Ins – Add toffee and oatmeal until well combined.

Why Are My Cookies Flat?

Don’t you just hate it when you pull out your baking sheet and your cookies have spread to much and they’re flat?! Usually this is because you’ve either added too much butter or too little flour or baking soda. Be sure to follow my measurements for this recipe and your brickle cookies will be perfect every time!

How To Store Oatmeal Brickle Cookies

As with all cookies, these are perfect when eaten warm out of the oven, but if you can’t get through that many they are easy to store. Simply place them in an air tight container for 3-4 days at room temperature and out of direct sunlight. You can also store them with a slice of bread to stop them from becoming too hard. Do not refrigerate them.

Tips

• Don’t overmix once egg has been added

• Use a cookie scoop to keep a consistent size
• Always bake the cookies in a pre-heated oven
• Don’t over bake, bake times vary from oven to oven, so watch your first batch carefully
