Cream together:
1 cup margarine (2 sticks)
1 cup sugar
1 cup brown sugar
Add:
2 eggs
1 tsp. vanilla
Beat well.
In a separate bowl mix:
2 cups of flour
2 1/2 cups of Oatmeal (measure and then put into blender until it resembles a powder)
1/2 tsp. salt
1 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. baking soda
Put dry ingredients into first bowl. Mix well. Add:
12 oz. bag of semi-sweet chips
1 cup nuts (if desired)
Preheat oven to 350. Roll cookies from large tablespoon. Place 2 inches apart and press lightly with fingers. Bake for about 10 min. If you place cookies on aluminum foil to cool, they will be chewier. Makes about 4 dozen cookies. Once cool, I freeze them in Ziploc bags so there are a few left for Christmas! I can never keep these long enough even in the freezer!
