Comments:
These florentine cookies can also be made with dark bittersweet chocolate, or milk chocolate chips or baking squares, substituting the semi-sweet chocolate in the recipe. Even white chocolate would be nice. A delicious European type cookie.

2/3 cup (1 1/3 sticks/5 1/3 oz/10 tbsp. + 2 tsp./150g) butter
2 cups quick-cooking oats
1 cup granulated sugar
2/3 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup light or dark corn syrup
1/4 cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/4 teaspoon salt
2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips, or semi-sweet chocolate baking squares
