Notes

Don’t overmix the batter; mix until just combined. Overmixed cookie batter leads to dry cookies.
Use either a silicone cookie sheet or line your baking sheet with parchment paper; otherwise, the cookies will stick after baking.
Let them cool fully on the pan before you move them, as they’re pretty delicate when warm.
Store cashew oatmeal cookies in an airtight container for 3-5 days on the counter.
