3. Step-by-step Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Ingredients

Gather all the ingredients to make your snack cookies easy to prepare. Measure out the flour, sugar, oats, and melted butter. This preparation will ensure a smooth mixing process! Having everything pre-measured not only speeds things up but also ensures accuracy—key for perfect baking, especially when crafting these tempting snack cookies. This recipe for small snack cookies is all about simplicity and speed.

Step 2: Mix the Batter

In a mixing bowl, combine the melted butter, sugar, and vanilla extract. Mix well until creamy. Then, add in the flour, oats, baking soda, and salt. Stir until all ingredients are well combined, and fold in the chocolate chips for that extra goodness! The key here is to not overmix the batter. Overmixing can lead to tough cookies, and we want these snack cookies to be soft and chewy. Gently fold in the chocolate chips to distribute them evenly.

Step 3: Shape the Cookies

With a spoon, drop cookie dough onto a greased or lined baking sheet, maintaining space between each cookie to allow them to spread. These little snack cookies will puff up as they bake, creating that perfect bite-sized treat! Using a small cookie scoop or even a teaspoon can help ensure that your snack cookies are uniform in size, which helps them bake evenly. Remember to leave a little space between each cookie; they will spread slightly during baking.

Step 4: Bake the Cookies

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and bake the cookies for about 12-15 minutes or until they are golden brown. The inviting aroma of freshly baked snack cookies will fill your kitchen, making it hard to wait until they’re cool enough to eat! Keep a close eye on your cookies during the last few minutes of baking. Every oven is different, and you want to ensure that your snack cookies are perfectly baked – golden on the edges and soft in the center.

4. Storage Tips

Store your snack cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week. For longer freshness, you can freeze them for up to three months. Just ensure they are well-wrapped to maintain quality! To prevent the cookies from sticking together, place a sheet of parchment paper between layers when storing. For freezing, flash freeze the cookies on a baking sheet before transferring them to a freezer bag. This will help them maintain their shape.

5. Serving Suggestions

These snack cookies are delightful on their own or can be served with a glass of milk, a cup of tea, or even a scoop of ice cream! Great for sharing at gatherings or enjoying as a midnight snack. Consider pairing them with other treats like the Cranberry Walnut Salad for a balanced snack platter. They are also perfect for packing in lunchboxes or taking on road trips.
