Recipe Request: OATMEAL CHOC CHUNK COOKIES

I love this cookie recipe that I snagged from (the now defunct) Cottage Living because it always satisfies my sweet tooth and it makes a bunch! Here's the recipe as requested after I took them to Grace Group last week. Enjoy!

OATMEAL CHOCOLATE CHUNK COOKIES


1 cup butter, softened


1 cup firmly packed brown sugar


1/2 cup sugar


2 large eggs


2 t vanilla


2 cups flour


1 t baking soda


1/2 t salt


3 cups uncooked regular oats


1 bag of semisweet chocolate chips or mega morsels


1 cup toasted pecans (optional)





1. Preheat oven to 350.


2. Beat butter and sugars at medium speed until creamy. Add eggs and vanilla, beating well.


3. In a separate bowl, combine flour, baking soda, and salt, stirring well. Add oats.


4. Add to butter mixture and mix until well blended. Gently stir in morsels and pecans.


5. Drop by tablespoons onto baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 10 minutes. Let cookies stand 2 -3 minutes before cooling on wire racks.

As you can see, we like them at our house!
