Oatmeal Toffee Pecan Cookies – A fuss-free delicious oatmeal cookie recipe. No chilling required!
These Oatmeal Toffee Pecan Cookies disappeared in no time in our house! Well, really every cookie disappears in no time in our house! This recipe is based on a recipe my dad made for us when I was a kid. That sounds funny for me to say because my dad is not a baker by any means. But I guess that one day when I was a child, he was hungry for cookies and decided to make them himself.
And because this memory is so rare and notable, it stuck in my brain all these years later! My mom must have been boycotting the kitchen that day because she was and still is always baking something. She gives me the best recipe ideas!
So in honor of my dad, who celebrated his 71st birthday yesterday, go ahead and make a memory with your family and make these soon!
