I made these oatmeal chocolate chip cookies by modifying Beatrice’s Excellent Oatmeal Cookies recipe. My boyfriend went crazy over them! I’ve never seen him enjoy cookies to that extent! He said I blew his mother’s recipe away.
Ingredients:
- 1 cup butter, softened
- 1 cup packed light brown sugar
- ½ cup white sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 3 cups quick-cooking oats
- 1 cup chopped walnuts
- 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
Directions:
Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C).
In a medium bowl, combine flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In a large bowl, beat butter, brown sugar, and white sugar until smooth. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well, then stir in vanilla.
Gradually mix in the dry ingredients. Fold in oats, walnuts, and chocolate chips.
Drop heaping spoonfuls of batter onto ungreased baking sheets.
Bake for 12 minutes. Let them cool on the sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Trust me, these cookies are a hit!
