I chose to share this recipe this time as it is a very simple cookies to make, and not to mention the crunchiness outside and chewiness inside.Besides, this is a pretty healthy snack as Oat is good for lowering cholestrol and almond is good for health too. If you choose to use the hot water instead of milk, this cookies is an option for people who are lactose intolerence. Why dont make yourself and your family with some nice and healthy cookies? They can be kept in a air-tight container for a week.

Hope you will enjoy it. See you next time.
