Best Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies

I know I have had a couple of Best's on here already but here is another one. I am always looking for the "best" of certain cookies I love. The husband and I are big Oatmeal Choc. Chip cookie Fans and are always on the lookout. At a shower the other day they had these cookies there and by the time the shower was over I had the recipe being emailed to me by our cousin Leslie. I also walked out the door carrying about 5 of them.

I decided to make them the next week but instead of chocolate chips I used chopped up Reesce's Peanut Butter Eggs from Easter candy.

Well the result was Perfection, rich, full of oatmeal and flavor like no other.

I promise you won't be dissapointed and I will finally be able to give up the search.
