Easy to make and delicious. Note: Granulated sugar is supposed to be 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons but the format wouldn't allow me to add the extra bit.
Ingredients:
1/4 cup softened butter
1/2 cup brown sugar (packed)
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 dash cinnamon (to taste)
1 dash clove (to taste)
1 egg
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1 1/4 cups flour
1/3 cup milled flax seed
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup oats
1 -2 tablespoon wheat germ (optional)
1 cup chocolate chips (optional)
Directions:
1. Cream butter and sugars.
2. Add egg and vanilla and mix.
3. Mix in a separate bowl: flour, baking powder, baking soda, wheat germ (optional), cinnamon, cloves, and salt.
4. Add mixed dry ingredients to butter/sugar/egg/vanilla and mix.
5. Stir in oats and flax seed until moist dough forms.
6. Fold in chocolate chips (optional).
7. Cook on greased cookie sheet in 1 inch balls (use cooled tablespoon or ice cream scoop to place on sheet) 10-15 minutes at 350ºF (adjust cooking time as necessary for cookie moistness and oven strength).
