yummy chocolate chip cookie alternative

yummy, soft, and chewy

Cream butter with sugars. Add vanilla, eggs and chocolate. Blend until thoroughly mixed. Stir in the oatmeal, flour, salt & baking soda. Add chocolate chips. Drop by 1/2 tbs or 1 tspful. If you make the cookies too big they will crumble after they are baked. Bake at 375 for about 10 minutes. You have to let these cookies cool for a while so they can "solidify".

we created these yesterday when we wanted to bake rainy day cookies but didn't have enough butter for our usual cookies, and really wanted oatmeal, too. 1/2 cup softened butter1/2 cups packed brown sugar1/4 cup turbinado sugar (in the raw)1 tbs vanilla1 egg1 oz melted unsweetened chocolate1 cup quick oats - run thru food processor till semi-fine1 cup flour1/2 tsp salt1/2 tsp baking soda1 cup choco chips

Preheat oven to 350. Cream the butter, then gradually add the sugar, beating well. Mix flour and salt together and add to the first mixture, combining thoroughly. Roll the dough with a rolling pin to ¼ “ thick, then cut into desired shape. Put them on ungreased cookie sheets, prick with fork, and bake 20-25 minutes or until lightly browned at the edges.Fannie Farmer, by Marion Cunningham45½ lb butter½ cup confectioner’s sugar2 cups flour¼ teaspoon salt
