Ingredients
  

For the Cookies
  • 1 cup cottage cheese
  • 1 cup old fashioned rolled oats
  • 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup chocolate chips, raisins, or chopped nuts optional

Equipment

  • Oven
  • Baking sheets
  • Parchment paper
  • Mixing bowl
  • Wire rack

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the cottage cheese, rolled oats, brown sugar, flour, baking soda, and vanilla. Mix until everything is well combined.
  3. Fold in the chocolate chips, raisins, and nuts if you are using them.
  4. Scoop the dough into large spoonfuls onto the prepared baking sheets. Space them about 2 inches apart, as they will spread slightly.
  5. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before moving them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Store these cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. For longer storage, keep them in the refrigerator for about a week, or in a freezer-safe bag in the freezer for up to 3 months. Thaw on the counter before eating.
You can use either dark or light brown sugar. Dark brown sugar will give a deeper flavor.
