These cookies don’t just sit there and behave. They hit you with bold coffee flavor, gooey chocolate, and chewy oats—because texture matters. They’re basically breakfast, but with extra caffeine and zero regrets. The espresso deepens the chocolate, the oats add a hearty chew, and the sugar keeps it all dangerously addictive. You’ll start with one and end up in a cookie-induced trance. Whether you dunk them in coffee or hoard them in secret, just know one thing: These aren’t your grandma’s boring oatmeal cookies.
