The Best Lace Oatmeal Cookies Recipe

You would be surprised how easy these oatmeal lace cookies are to make, and just how many cookies you’ll end up with! The batter is super simple to whip up, and there is no chilling time required! We want these cookies to spread thin in the oven, so that they will come out perfectly caramelized and crisp. To take things up a notch, I dipped them in butter to make lace sandwich cookies that are seriously to die for! You’re whole family is going to love these sweet treats. Have them as a light and crunchy dessert, or as a pick-me-up with an afternoon cup of tea! They are also a fun addition to add to your Christmas cookie exchange!

Ingredients Needed

Unsalted Butter: I like to use unsalted butter. If you have salted butter, add less salt to the mixture. Light Brown Sugar: The brown sugar adds a hint of caramel flavor to the cookies. Vanilla: For a little extra flavor! Oats: I like to use old fashioned oats or quick cooking oats because that is what I typically have on hand! Almond Flour: Adds a hint of nuttiness to the cookie. You can use store bought almond flour or make your own! Salt: To bring out all of the flavors! Egg White: Adds structure and helps the cookie to stay light and crispy! Chocolate Chips: I used semi-sweet chocolate chips but you can use any kind that you want! Milk chocolate or dark chocolate would work! This chocolate will be used to stick two cookies together for little cookie sandwiches with a layer of chocolate in the middle. If you would like to make more cookies you can simply drizzle chocolate onto each cookie or simply omit. Coconut Oil: This helps to create silky smooth melted chocolate.

Tips for Success

Gift them for Christmas! These eyelet lace cookies make an great Christmas cookie that can be gifted to friends, family and neighbors! Pair with a scoop of ice cream! I like eating these on their own, but for a larger dessert, they pair great with a scoop of vanilla or chocolate ice cream. Don’t chill the dough! This is essential to making lace cookies. A chilled dough will not spread in the oven, so you won’t get paper thin lace cookies like you want!
