Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

Notes about this recipe

    Overall, these are pretty good cookies but I did play around a bit: dough balls chilled vs not (preferred not) and salted tops vs not (preferred not). Having said all of the that, we like the combo of chocolate, oatmeal & craisins but I would also consider cutting both add-ins back a bit and adding pecans to the mix. I made 29 g balls (= 22 cookies for a 1/2 recipe) and 9-10 minutes in the oven seemed right.

    These were ok but not the oatmeal chocolate chip cookies of my dreams. I baked some immediately and froze some dough balls, which entirely changed the texture of the cookie. Either baked from frozen or thawed then baked they didn't spread.

    Loved these. Cookie dough came together really quickly and easily. I chilled the dough before baking and got the result Ina promised. I did halve the recipe and only used 100g of chocolate and this was plenty

    I used large chocolate chips instead of chunks. I got 18 cookies from half the recipe. I chilled the dough before scooping and baking, realizing later that I was supposed to chill the balls of dough. The cookies still took about 12 minutes to bake to light brown. They were soft rather than crisp, even though they were thin. Maybe due to weather? Very tasty - don't skip the fleur de sel on top.
