Those small children are referred to as “magic cookies” on account of the fantastic texture and all the glorious mix-ins we’ll be including proper to the batter. Right here’s what you’ll wish to cause them to:

• Coconut oil: melted coconut oil provides the cookies moisture and slightly spice up of coconut taste. No sweetened condensed milk in right here, which is a commonplace component in different magic cookie bars and cookies.
• Brown sugar: we’re the usage of all darkish brown sugar (no white sugar) in those cookies for that wealthy molasses taste. It additionally makes the cookies additional chewy!
• Eggs: you’ll want 1 egg and 1 egg yolk to assist the cookies bake correctly.

Can I take advantage of metal reduce oats?

I’d now not suggest the usage of metal reduce oats as they’re much more difficult and won’t give the cookies that chewy issue that rolled oats will!
