One of my favorite oatmeal cookie recipes, I sometimes like to use a mixture of butterscotch and chocolate baking chips - these cookies are very good! Ingredients:
1 cup butter, softened |
1 1/2 cups brown sugar, packed |
2 teaspoons maple extract (or use vanilla) |
2 large eggs |
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour |
1/2 teaspoon baking soda |
3/4 teaspoon salt |
3 cups quick-cooking oats |
1 1/2 cups butterscotch chips or 1 1/2 cups chocolate chips |
Directions:
1. Set oven to 350 degrees F.
2. Generoulsy grease cookie sheet/s.
3. In a large bowl mix together the butter with brown sugar, maple extract and eggs; beat using an electric mixer on medium speed until fluffy and no sugar granules remain (about 3 minutes).
4. In a bowl combine the flour with baking soda and salt; add to the creamed mixture and beat until just combined.
5. Stir in the oats until combined (the batter will be thick).
6. Mix in nuts or baking chips (if using).
7. Drop by heaping teaspoonfuls onto greased cooking sheet spacing about 2-inches apart.
8. Bake for 8-10 minutes or until lightly golden (do not overbake).
9. Cool for 2-3 minutes then remove to rack to cool completely.
