My Grandma Lola used to make these cookies every time we would visit. They are even good the second day. Just pop them in the microwave for 30 seconds!!
INGREDIENTS (for 1 servings):
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 1/2 cups butter
- 1 1/2 cups white sugar
- 1 1/2 cups packed brown sugar
- 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 3 eggs
- 4 cups semisweet chocolate chips
- 1/3 cup wheat germ (optional)
- 3 cups rolled oats
PREPARATION:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
In a medium size mixing bowl sift together flour, baking soda, salt and baking powder.
In a large mixing bowl cream butter, white and brown sugars together until light and fluffy. Dribble vanilla into the creamed mixture. Beat the eggs, one at a time, into the mixture. Add the sifted ingredients to the creamed mixture. Beat until well mixed.
Pour chocolate chips, wheat germ and oats into the mixture; fold into dough until well combined. Drop the dough by rounded teaspoonful onto an ungreased cookie sheet.
Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until the edges are just slightly brown. The cookies will look undercooked but that is the correct consistency. Cool on a wire rack.
