Re-use a Recipe: Oat and Stem Ginger Cookies / Sweet Oat Biscuits

Has anyone ever had Sweet Oat Biscuits from AMT coffee? They are to die for! Like a hobnob - but not so dusty, more buttery, sweeter, and with a light hint of coconut. Perfect dunked in coffee. Costa's stem ginger cookies are also similarly de-diddly-licious, with gorgeous chewy ginger chunks baked right in. I've searched high and low for a recipe that approximates to these wonderful cookies, but alas, I have yet to find it.

The closest I have come is a slight adaptation of a trusty Anzac biscuits recipe on www.bbcgoodfood.com. This recipe is so versatile that with some minor tweaks, it transforms from Anzac, into a Sweet Oat Biscuit or a Stem Ginger and Oat cookie, with dependable and delicious results.
