Cookie break.
“Hey, can you make the cookies made of crack?”, my husband asks me.
(He’s referring to the addictive qualities of a specific Oatmeal Chocolate Chip cookie. There are no narcotics involved. Really.)
So I made the cookies made of crack, and I thought it’s about time I share this ridiculous goodness with the world. So here you go. The best cookies in the world. (Originally my mom’s recipe)
1 cup shortening
3/4 cup brown suger
3/4 cup granulated sugar
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla
1 1/2 cups flour
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
2 cups oatmeal
7 oz semi-sweet chocolate chips (or more… whatever amount of chocolate you want)
mix well shortening, sugar, eggs & vanilla.
add remaining ingredients, mix well to blend
bake at 350 on greased cookie sheets, about 8 minutes
(best removed from oven when not completely browned… will cool to a more chewy consistency!)
Make them. Today. But please use their powers for good, not evil.
YUM.
If you add about 2 T of water to the recipe then you can put them in a greased 9×13 pan and you have some of the best cookie bars in the world.
WARNING: If you leave them in the pan in a highly trafficked area w/ a knife still in the pan they will disappear in 24 hours.
you speak truth, my bro
you should send me some of those …
nope. keeping them here. fetch. :)
