impromptu cookies

variation on oatmeal cookie, adding ground (in a food processor) semi sweet chocolate at the last minute instead of raisins or chocolate chips, and adding melted peanut butter after they bake.

improvised oatmeal raisin pie topped with peanut butter and chocolate swirls

ok, so. i decided to bake oatmeal raisin cookies last night, but i was halving the recipe because it makes so many. all was going as planned until i was adding the very last ingredient - the oats. instead of adding 1.5 cups, i added 2.5... so then i threw in another egg, a bit more brown & granulated sugar... balled it up and baked 6 cookies. they came out extremely thin and very chewy. delicious. with the leftover dough from last night, i pressed it out into a glass pie plate, pushing up on the sides to make a crust. i baked this for 20 minutes at 350. i then poured a layer of melted peanut butter, and then a layer of melted semi-sweet chocolate on top, twisted through them with a knife, and baked an additional 10 minutes. then elias whipped some heavy cream, and wah-lah, oatmeal raisin cookies knocked up several notches.
