Two of my favorite cookies are oatmeal raisin cookies and Gingerbread cookies, so of course this Oatmeal Gingerbread Cookies Recipe is going to become a brand new holiday cookie favorite in my home!
This Oatmeal Gingerbread Cookies Recipe uses cookie butter. It's found in the peanut butter aisle and it's made of ground up cookies. It's amazing if you haven't ever had it! I think Trader Joes is probably my favorite brand of cookie butter, but I'd love to hear if you have a favorite yourself!
Wouldn't it be fun to make a batch of these cookies, wrap them up really pretty, and give them to someone as a gift with the recipe and a jar of cookie butter? I used to make cookie recipe kits for family members all of the time, it was really fun and inexpensive!
