Oatmeal chocolate chip cookies, yum
I am a baked-goods fanatic. However, while I enjoy baking 24 cookies, I do not need to eat 24 cookies. So, I brought my baker’s dozen to Pop Outerwear‘s office.
Here is a delicious recipe for oatmeal chocolate chip cookies. If you stop by the showroom, you might be offered one…
The Most Amazing Chocolate Chip Cookies:
In large bowl, beat egg until fluffy. If you are an indulgent/spontaneous baker such as myself, bring butter to room temperature by using the “defrost” setting on the microwave. Beat butter, egg & vanilla together, blend in sugars. Warm butter = unhappy cookies
After the wet ingredients are mixed, put the bowl in the freezer to chill**
1 C Butter 2 Eggs 1 C Sugar 1 C Brown Sugar 1 t vanilla
Mixing
Now, mix the dry ingredients together in separate bowl. I just recently got a food processor for my birthday (thanks Mom!). If you have one, blending the oatmeal makes a nice consistency. But for the past 4 years, I have successfully baked these cookies without. This also adds another step/dish to wash…
2 C Flour 2 1/2 C Oatmeal 1 t Baking Powder 1 t Baking Soda 1/2 t Salt
Ready for the oven
Slowly blend in dry ingredients. Fold in chocolate chips. Bake at 375 for 7-10 minutes. If you have a wretched oven, such as mine, rotate cookie tray and reduce temperature 25 degrees, if needed.
