Father’s Day: Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Peanut Butter Cookie Pie

Every Father’s Day I like to bake something special for my dad. This year I thought I’d take one of his favorite desserts and turn it into something huge. Making this cookie brought back fond memories. When I was a kid, Dad would take me to the mall and longingly stare at the big Mrs. Fields chocolate chip cookies in the glass case.

While I was shopping, he’d always sneak off and get a cup of coffee and a small chocolate chip. Got to love Dads! This is a deliciously nutritious cookie that is sure to warm your dad’s heart too.
