Dark Chocolate Oatmeal Lace Cookies

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup sifted all-purpose flourhoney
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp baking powder
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1/2 cup old-fashioned oats
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 tbsp 1% milk
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 oz dark chocolate, melted

Method

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the flour, sugar, cinnamon, baking
    powder, salt, and oats; set aside.
  3. In the bowl of a stand mixer, combine melted butter, milk, honey, and vanilla.
  4. Mix until smooth.
  5. Slowly add in the dry ingredients and mix to combine.
  6. Drop 1 level teaspoon of batter onto prepared baking sheets leaving space in between, placing only 12 cookies on each sheet because the cookies will spread in the oven.
  7. Bake for 7-9 minutes.
  8. Remove from oven and let cookies cool on baking sheets for 2 minutes.
  9. Carefully transfer cookies to a wire rack and cool completely.
  10. Spread one cookie with a thin layer of melted chocolate and sandwich with another cookie on top.
  11. Repeat with remaining cookies.

Keep in mind, when baking these cookies, the batter will spread once baked so don’t put them too close together on the cookie sheet. Once baked they will keep well in an airtight container.
