Have you ever had the pleasure of eating an Oatmeal Chipper cookie from Paradise Bakery? It was my sweet indulgence when I worked at the Great Mall while going to SJSU. I haven't found a recipe that comes close (they must put some secret ingredient in there!), but here's one that still satisfies the sweet tooth. And you can claim it's healthy since there's oatmeal in there!
Ingredients:
- 1 cup butter, softened
- 1 cup sugar 1 cup packed brown sugar
- 2 eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups old-fashioned oats 2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
Directions:
- Cream the butter, sugar and brown sugar in a large bowl and beat in eggs and vanilla
- Combine the flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt; add to creamed mixture.
- Stir in oats and chocolate chips
- Drop by rounded tablespoonfuls 2 in. apart onto ungreased baking sheets. Bake at 350 degrees F for 11-12 minutes. Cool on wire racks.
I found that these cookies tasted even better the more they sat. Days later, they were super tastier than when I baked them =). This dough also made about 48 cookies - it was a lot of dough!
I now understand why people pay just a smidge more for the bigger mixer. I had to mix the oatmeal and chips in by hand because it was too much dough for my mixer. But lookie here! I had one of my little helpers in cow pj's to ease the burden!
