Soft & Chewy Peanut Butter Oatmeal Cookies

What's better than peanut butter cookies? Peanut butter oatmeal cookies, of course. These cookies are a super fast and easy way to whip up a treat that tastes like you spent a ton of time baking.

Like Banana Bread, peanut butter cookies have always been one of my go-to late-night recipes when I am feeling the need to bake. I almost always have all of the ingredients on hand and they are SO easy to make. I was feeling adventurous this go around and decided to take a spin off my classic peanut butter cookie recipe and incorporate oats for a unique flavor with a nice chewy texture.

I've been in such a tailspin trying to master the art of good lighting while making time for my “real” work during the day. I made these cookies in the very late afternoon and only had enough time to get the dough balls photographed in semi-decent lighting before that perfect ray of light was suddenly behind the trees.
