National Cookie Day...

In honor of this day, an edition of If I can You can Too.

Lets create Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies, shall we.

Ok, pre-heat your oven to 325 and put in your baking sheet.

Then melt a cup of butter, just until soft.

Then in a large bowl, mix until smooth the

1 cup butter

1 cup light brown sugar

1/2 white sugar

(These are cookies people, just don't eat the etire batch yourself!)

Then add in two eggs--the recipes says one at a time, I don't know why, but I did.

Then stir in 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract

Now in another bowl mix the dry stuff--

1 1/4 cups flour

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1 teaspoon salt

Then pour the dry stuff into the wet stuff and mix.

Then add--

3 cups quick-cooking oats (see it says heart healthy)

1 cup chopped walnuts or not--do you feel like a nut or not--I didn't

1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips--or a bit more if your like, I liked.

It should all look something like this.

Then spoon them on to a baking pan. They don't really spread too much, but a bit. (should have taken photo of first ones, opps.)

Bake on 325 until lightly brown, or about 10-12 minutes. You should leave them on the baking dish or a moment before moving them to the cooling rake, they are less likely to fall apart.

Yum, McYum!
