Oatmeal Cherry Chocolate Cookies

By srumbel

Today I want to share a delightful Oatmeal cookie recipe with you. It has great flavor and I love the crispy on the outside, chewy on the inside texture. I used Craisins® Cherry but feel free to swap in any type of Craisins® that you’d like! Be sure to scroll down to see the video of how I incorporated Craisins® into my day- including making these cookies!
