Notes

Substitute All Purpose Flour in place of Whole Wheat and Oats flour. OR, you can also use any combination. Add liquid(milk) accordingly.
The texture of cookies is different from what we get by using All Purpose Flour or Maida. You can use it if you want cookies like the commercial ones.
Add a pinch of salt when using unsalted butter.
I have used White Chocolate Chips in the recipe. Roughly chopped white chocolate can be substituted in place of chocolate chips.
Feel free to add chopped nuts like pecans, macadamia etc.
Pointers to get perfect cookies
    • Fold the dough very lightly. Just get it together. Overmixing the dough gives dense dry and hard cookies.
    • Do not add milk all at once as the dough will get very wet. Add 1 tbsp at a time. 
    • Scoop out the cookies with a spoon or ice cream scooper or use your eyeball estimation, this ensures same size and uniform baking of all the cookies.
    • Once the cookies are baked do not transfer immediately from the baking tray. Cookies are very soft and delicate when warm and may break if touched.
    • Once the cookies are completely cool ,and store in an air tight container.
To freeze the dough, you can make small dough balls (scoop the dough), line on baking tray and chill for about 30 mins. Then and keep in a freezer friendly zip lock bag/container(preferred).
To bake the frozen cookie dough balls, preheat the oven and then line the dough balls on baking tray and bake for 12- 15 mins or till the edges start turning light brown.
To get perfect round cookies, lightly press the warm cookies(just out of oven) with a spoon.
Add a pinch of salt when using unsalted butter.
