What are some good cookie recipies?

Answer 1

OK...I'm going to give you my world-famous Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookie recipe...just because you seem like a nice guy. :) These are a huge hit when I make them for work. I made 14 dozen once for about 25 people and they were gone within hours!

1 cup brown sugar
1 cup white sugar
1 cup sweet butter
2 eggs
2 Tablespoons milk
2 teaspoons vanilla
2 cups flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
2 1/2 cups old-fashioned oats (not the Quick Oats)
18 oz semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 1/2 cups chopped walnuts

1) Cream sugars and butter until smooth and fluffy. Add eggs and vanilla. Beat well. Combine flour, salt, baking soda and baking powder. Gradually beat into batter. By hand, stir in oats, chocolate chips and walnuts. Drop onto cool baking sheet (chill dough between sheets) and bake at 350 degrees for 12 minutes.

Makes between 5 and 7 dozen, depending how big you make the cookies.

Enjoy!!

Place cooling rack over shallow pan. Immediately remove cookies from cookie sheet and gently place onto cooling rack. Sprinkle with candy/sugar mixture.
