Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies

I love oatmeal cookies! Add some chocolate and they are in the running for my favorite cookie! Only bested by the snicker-doodle of course. I was craving some this weekend, so I googled "oatmeal chocolate chip cookies" and a Betty Crocker recipe came up first. I modified them a tiny bit, so here is my take on the original recipe.

1 1/2   Cups Packed Brown Sugar
1          Cup Butter
1 1/2   Teaspoons Vanilla
1          Egg
2          Cups Quick Oats
1 1/2   Whole Wheat Flour
1          Teaspoon Baking Soda
1/4      Teaspoon Salt
1 1/4   Cups Mini Chocolate Chips




I used Whole Wheat Flour and an Organic, Cage-Free Egg, so they are healthy......right??? They have oatmeal in them, which is healthy too, right? 




I got a little artsy on this last photo, please forgive me. I just love Picmonkey!




So, the recipe makes 48 cookies. Holy cow! I love these, but 48 seemed a bit crazy. I froze a quarter of the recipe for later. You can save the dough in the freezer for up to 6 months, not that it will last that long in mine.

Everyone at the office loved these cookies. I hope you love them too!

Happy blogging!
