Soft Chocolate Chip Cookies

INGREDIENTS:

* 8 ounces butter
* 1 cup granulated sugar
* 1 cup brown sugar, packed
* 2 eggs
* 1 teaspoon vanilla
* 2 cups flour
* 2 1/2 cups rolled oats
* 1/2 teaspoon salt
* 1 teaspoon baking powder
* 1 teaspoon baking soda
* 1 package (12 ounces) semisweet chocolate chips
* 4 ounce bar milk chocolate, grated
* 1 1/2 cups chopped pecans, optional

PREPARATION:
In a large mixing bowl with hand-held electric mixer, cream together the butter and sugars. Add eggs and vanilla, beating well. In a separate container, mix together flour, oats, salt, baking powder and baking soda.

Place small amounts of dry mixture into blender or food processor and process until mixture turns into powder.

Mix the creamed mixture with the flour and oat mixture until just blended. Add chocolate chips, grated milk chocolate and chopped pecans, if using.

Serpent Player's Old Fashioned Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe

(another old-fashioned treat for serpentists, made the traditional way)

2-1/2 cup all-purpose white flour (no need to sift it before measuring)
2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (NOT sweet chips and NOT bitter baking chocolate chips), typical 12 oz bag is equal to 2 cups
1 cup butter or margarine
1 cup chopped walnuts or pecans
3/4 cup brown sugar (packed into measuring cup to avoid air pockets)
3/4 cup general purpose 'white/granulated' table sugar (normal sugar)
2 eggs
1/2 tsp. (teaspoon) vanilla
1 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. cinnamon
1/2 tsp. salt


Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.

In a small mixing bowl, thoroughly combine flour, salt, baking soda, cinnamon; put aside.

Place butter into large microwave-safe mixing bowl and microwave for between 15 and 30 seconds to slightly soften contents (this step is optional if butter is already fairly soft - instead of microwaving, butter may also be left out at room temperature for a while to soften). Remove from microwave, and using a food processor with mixing implement or electric mixer, mix softened butter with both sugars until consistency is even and creamy. Add eggs and vanilla, and mix thoroughly. Gradually add previously mixed dry ingredients and mix thoroughly. Using a wooden spoon or similar implement, stir in chocolate chips and nuts.

Remove tea spoon (actual tea spoon, not the measuring kind) full of the dough, and drop onto ungreased cookie sheet (or pizza pan, tray, etc.). Repeat for remainder of dough, spacing drops about every 3" in each direction.

Bake cookies at 375 degrees for about 10 minutes, or until they just begin to turn golden brown. Remove from oven and allow to cool for a few minutes before removing cookies from cookie sheet, placing them on layers of paper towel, or a baking cloth, or wire rack if available, until cool. Makes about 52 cookies of 2-1/4" diameter.

Answer 2

I go by the one on the bag, but use butter flavored crisco, useREAL vanilla extract, fresh eggs if possible and quality choc.chips. It's amazing what quality/fresh ing. can do.... (and I always add more chips in along w/chopped walnuts.

Here's Mrs. fields recipe:

1/2 lb. (2 sticks) of butter
1 C. packed light brown sugar
2 eggs
1 t. vanilla
1/2 t. salt
1 t. baking soda
1 t. baking powder
5 packets (1 serving ea.) Quaker Instant Oatmeal regular flavor
2 C. all purpose flour
3 bars (1.45 oz. ea.) nestles Milk Chocolate candy
12 oz. pkg. semi-sweet choc chips
1 C. chopped walnuts


Procedure:

Put Nestles candy bars through blender till consistency & size of dry barley. Set aside.

Using medium sized mixing bowl and electric mixer on medium-high speed, combine first 8 ingredients, beating well with each addition. Put the 5 packets of instant oatmeal through blender on high speed, a few seconds, till it is finely powdered; the consistency of flour. Remove beaters and work in oatmeal, a little at a time, and then the
flour, till dough is smooth. Work in ground Nestles candy, and then the chocolate chips and walnuts. Prepare cookie
sheet. Measure out dough in level 1/4 cup measuring cups, shaping each into patties 1/2 inch thick and about 2 inches in diameter. Place 2 inches apart on prepared cookie sheets.

Bake 375F exactly 10 minutes. DO NOT overbake or cookies will be hard when completely cool! Allow cookies to cool on baking sheet 5 minutes and then remove carefully to continue cooling on paper towels. Makes 2 dozen.

Answer 3

Like "Ann" said, use the one on the Nestle choc chip pkg. The recipe is about a half century old. If you want them chewy, under cook them.

Answer 4

actually chocolate chip oat meals once are so much better and so chewy. A person can not stop at one.

I buy them at the grocery store near the dairy section, Pillsbury makes them in a tub.....

Damn. Now want some..

The raw dough is also to die for.

Answer 5

the one on the nestle package -- if you like them chewy make them bar cookies, in a 9x13 cake pan.
