Mabob Cookies

Chocolate Chip Cookies

3 cups flour
1 tsp salt
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
2 sticks margarine
1 cup white sugar
1 cup brown sugar
2 large eggs
2 tsp vanilla
2 cups old fashioned oatmeal
2.5 cups chocolate chips

Preheat 375°. In a mixer (if you have one otherwise in a bowl and use a handmixer), beat margarine and the two sugars until creamy. Then add eggs and vanilla and beat until fluffy. Mix dry ingredients (excluding the oatmeal) together in a bowl. Beat this into the rest, but only until it is well mixed in, over beating at this point will make for some tougher cookies. Mix in the oatmeal and chocolate chips. Make balls of dough and put on the pan. Makes about 40 cookies for me. Cook for 7 minutes, rotate which pan is on top if you have two going at once, and cook for another 7 or 8.





The dough is clearly the best part.

So far, my mom and I are the only people to successfully make these. Other people have made them, and they've been fine, but they just can't compare, and no one knows why. May be the oven.

  1. These cookies are SO good. If you *ahem* mix up a bit much *ahem ahem*, you could always send some my way. :)
