Emily's Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe


Ok, I have been told that these are the best cookies by several people. They are definitely Oli's favorites and they might be Conrad's too!

Here's the recipe:

1 cup unsalted butter, softened (not microwaved)
1 c packed light brown sugar
2 eggs
2 teaspoons real vanilla extract
1 1/4 c organic whole wheat flour
1/2 t baking soda
1 t salt
3.5 -4 c quaker oats (the regular ones, not the 'quick' ones)
1 c (++) ghiradelli 60% chocolate chips

Preheat the oven 325.
Cream butter & brown sugar until smooth. Beat in eggs one at a time, then stir in vanilla. Combine flour, baking soda, salt and stir into the batter until blended. Add the oats and chips! Use parchment paper to cook. One heaping spoonful of dough = medium cookie which will take about 12-13 minutes to cook, depending on your oven. They freeze very well!
Yum.
