Crisp Salted Oatmeal White Chocolate Cookies

Baked another batch of cookies for the "Mr or Ms Cookie Monster" ! hee.. hee.. ! This time with some salt flakes on the cookies.

The salt flakes complement the crisp oatmeal and sweet white chocolate in these cookies. Love the crisp of the outer rims with chocolate bits in the middle and a hint of salty flavour.
