EASY to make-
Oatmeal, peanut butter, chocolate chip cookies.
The PB and choc go great together, and the oatmeal gives them texture and flavor as well. It's a great combination...... They stay soft for a day or 2. It's the only thing I can bake that is easy and reliably comes out good every time.
1/2 C butter (1 stick- non salted at room temp)
1/2 c white sugar
1/3 c packed brown sugar
1/2 c PB (I use creamy)
1/2 tea vanilla extract
1 egg
1 c all purpose white flour
1 tea baking soda
1/4 tea salt
1/2 c quick oats
1 c semi sweet choc chips.
Preheat oven to 350.
in large bowl cream together butter, sugar and brown sugar until smooth.
Stir in the PB, vanilla and egg- blend well.
Add flour, baking soda, and salt- stir lightly until just blended.
Add the oats and choc chips- stir to evenly distribute.
Spoon onto greased cookie sheets. makes about 24.
Bake for 11-12 minutes until edges just start to brown. (they tend to be lumpy cookies, if lumps start to brown, take it out!) Remove from oven, but leave on cookie sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to wire rack to cool.
