Who doesn’t love a sweet! I love baking chocolate chip cookies – I keep tweaking my recipe to try to make the perfect cookie. I try to replicate my grandmothers – but I have given up. She says she doesn’t add any secret ingredient or do anything special, but I cannot get them to be like hers. So onward and upward finding “my” perfect chocolate chip cookie. And I think this is it! Crunchy and crisp on the outside, a little chewy on the inside.
- 1 cup Crisco
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 2 eggs
- 3/4 cup of oatmeal
- 3/4 cup of whole wheat flour
- 1 1/2 – 2 cups of flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- chocolate chips to taste (I used about 1 1/2 cups)
blend ingredients in mixer, adding in order listed above. Spoon out dough onto a cookie sheet. Bake at 375 degrees for 11-13 minutes (depending on your oven). Eat warm or let cool and enjoy!
Talk to you soon,
