🍪 Ingredients:
½ cup unsalted butter
¾ cup granulated sugar
¼ cup brown sugar
¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
¼ cup whole milk or 2% milk
½ cup Baileys Irish Cream
½ tsp vanilla extract
¼ tsp salt
3 cups quick oats
½ cup chopped hazelnuts or pecans (optional)
½ cup mini chocolate chips
👨🍳 Instructions:
1. Prepare a Baking Sheet
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat. You want these babies to set up nicely.
2. Make the Chocolate Base
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine:
butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, cocoa powder, and milk.
Stir constantly and bring to a gentle boil. Let it bubble for 1 minute, then remove from heat.
3. Add the Boozy Goodness & Oats
Stir in Baileys Irish Cream, vanilla, and salt.
Then fold in quick oats, mini chocolate chips, and nuts (if you're feelin’ fancy). Mix it up until well coated.
4. Scoop & Set
Drop tablespoon-sized portions onto your prepped sheet.
Let them set at room temp for 30 minutes, or pop them in the fridge if you’re in beast mode and can’t wait.
5. Enjoy
Store in an airtight container at room temp for up to 5 days—or keep in the fridge for that perfect chewy bite.
