Blonde Oatmeal Cookie Bombs

Today I decided to chip away at our bulk oats and made some awesome cookies for Marc to enjoy while I am away.  This recipe was super easy and the cookies delicious.  I really like how different they look compared to the run-of-the-mill chocolate chip oatmeal cookies too.  I will be making these again soon.  The name however, could use some work.  If you have any ideas, please share!
