Mrs. Fields Chocolate Chip Cookies

Ingredients

Instructions

In a mixer, combine butter, white sugar and brown sugar. Add eggs and vanilla.

Put oatmeal in a blender (small amount at a time) and continue blending until it turns to powder.

In a separate bowl, add the powdered oatmeal and mix together (using a spoon) with the flour, salt, baking powder, and baking soda. Add that mixture slowly to the batter already in the mixer -- if the batter gets too stiff for the mixer continue by hand. Add the chocolate chips, Hershey bar chunks and nuts (optional).

Drop heaping teaspoonsful on to a greased cookie sheet. Bake at 325-350 degrees for 10 minutes or until lightly browned. Let the cookies cool slightly before removing them from the cookie sheets.
