I felt like doing some baking today and warming up the house a little and rewarding myself with an indulgence, so I decided on these delicious cookies!
The oatmeal is actually pretty good for you, as it is much higher in fiber than plain old flour, and everyone needs an indulgence now and then.
You will need:
1 C unsalted butter, softened
1 tsp vanilla
1 egg
2 C quick cooking oats
1 1/2 C all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking SODA
1/4 tsp salt
1 C. semisweet chocolate chips
1 C. chopped nuts (optional)
Preheat your oven to 350. Combine sugar and butter on low speed of your mixer until blended. Next, add in the egg and vanilla and turn the speed up on the mixer to about half way and work the mixture until fluffy. Slow the speed back down on the mixer to low and gradually add in the oats, flour, baking soda, salt, and chocolate chips (and nuts, if you want them).
Place by rounded tablespoons on an ungreased cookie sheet about 2 inches apart and bake for 9-11 minutes until golden brown. Cool 2 minutes before removing from cookie sheet to a cooling rack.
Pour a big glass of milk and enjoy!
