I forgot to lay out the chocolate chips! One of the great things about this recipe is I only used one bowl. And I didn't even use a mixer as the instructions suggest. First I mixed the butter, brown sugar and vanilla together. Then I threw in the rest of the ingredients right on top and mixed. Easy!
If you don't have a Silpat, get one!
I then use a regular large spoon to scoop out my cookies. I'm able to fit 12 cookies on the baking sheet. I ended up with 36 cookies. I love, love, love my Silpat. I got mine from Bed Bath and Beyond. No more burnt cookie bottom and raw dough on top!
When I bake cookies I take try to take them out just before they look done. That way you end up with super soft, chewy cookies. The only thing I might do different is cut back on or omit the nutmeg. A little nutmeg goes a long way.
- 1/2 lb butter or margarine softened
- 1-1/2 cups golden brown sugar, packed
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs
- 2 cups quick oats cereal
- 1-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp ground nutmeg(I'd go with 1/4 tsp or none at all)
- 1/2 tsp salt
- semi-sweet chocolate chips (eyeball it, I like lots!)
Bake at 350 for 10-13 minutes
