The holidays will be here before we know it, so let's share those recipes in plenty of time for the baking frenzy.
My Grandmother would often have these cookies waiting, warm for the oven, for me after school. I'm baking some right now!
Grandma Alice's Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Cookies
Mix dry ingredients in a medium size bowl:
1 1/2 C flour
1 tsp soda
1 tsp cinnamon
1/8 tsp nutmeg
In a large bowl mix:
2 sticks of REAL butter, well softened
1 C tightly packed brown sugar
1/2 C granulated sugar
~cream together the butter and sugar until well blended then add
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla
add the dry ingredients to the large bowl, stir well and then add
3 C quick oats
1 C chocolate chips
drop by rounded spoonful onto a cookie sheet and bake for 9-12 minutes at 350F, remove to racks to cool.
I like my cookies on the soft side so I bake them 9-10 minutes. Sometimes I'll cut the choc chips down to 3/4 of a cup and add a 1/2 cup of nuts, peanut butter chips or butterscotch chips to the mix.
Mmmmmm
