Oatmeal Toffee Cookies

Many years ago, I printed out a recipe for Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies online and, like many other of my printed recipes, they are torn and tattered.

I wanted to try something new and document it here online, so instead of adding chocolate chips, I used toffee bits and walnuts.

Oatmeal Toffee Cookies

Ingredients Needed

  • softened butter
  • vegetable shortening
  • water
  • granulated sugar
  • eggs
  • milk
  • light brown sugar
  • milk
  • vanilla extract
  • all purpose flour
  • baking soda
  • regular oats (not quick or steel cut)
  • toffee bits
  • chopped walnuts

How do you make Oatmeal Toffee Cookies?

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. In a large bowl, cream together the butter, shortening, water and sugar with a wooden spoon (you can also use a stand mixer). Add eggs, milk and vanilla; then mix well.

Next, add the flour and baking soda and mix well. Add the oats, toffee and walnuts; mix well. Using the top half of a kitchen teaspoon, drop the cookie dough onto a greased baking sheet, leaving 2-inches between them. Bake for 10-12 minutes; let cool. This recipe makes 4 dozen cookies. 

These Oatmeal Toffee Cookies were amazingly good and make a tasty addition to your holiday baking platters. ~Enjoy!

    I made these today and they are delicious. I had to play with size and time, but finally got them perfect. My son doesn't like raisins, so this is a good alternative to the classic oatmeal raisin. Thanks for another great recipe.

      I'm not a huge fan of raisins either which is why I liked these as well. You can also try adding mini chocolate chips. I'm glad you liked them, thanks for letting me know. 🙂
