Oatmeal Cookies!


The cat wants some cookies too!

Oatmeal Chocolate-chip Cookies

A -
1 cup plain flour
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp baking soda
1 and 1/2 cups rolled oats, coarsely chopped

B-
1/2 cup butter
1/4 cup fine granulated sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1 egg
1 cup chocolate-chips (more or less, your preference)
1/2 cup walnuts (or more if you like)

** I used 1 chopped up Cadbury's bar and 3/4 cup chopped walnuts.

Method :

1. In a bowl combine flour, salt, baking soda and oatmeal (A). Set aside.
2. In a mixing bowl beat butter with sugar (brown and white), vanilla extract till light and fluffy. Beat in egg.
3. Add (A) mixture (flour and oatmeal) till well blended. Stir in the nuts and chocolate chips.
4. Freeze till firm for about 15 minutes.
5. Drop by spoonful onto greased cookie pan*. Bake at 350F for 10-15 minutes or till edges turn light brown.

*Tip: Reynolds Release Nonstick aluminum is so much better than a greased cookie pan. No greasing and no sticking!
