I was in the mood to spend some lazy time in the kitchen. Not too much thought or work but creating something fun. Both Jenna and Jaelyn, my daughters requested time with me to bake so we came up with this recipe to appease both their tastes. I like the consistency of the Red Mill Hot Cereal and it’s not processed with fillers, and added sugars like the popular name brands. It also holds up well in the baking process and gives a nice texture to the cookies. You can add chopped nuts to the recipe if you desire; I’d suggest no more than 1 ½ cups of toasted walnuts or pecans add in as your stir in the chocolate chips.
