Here is what you do if the above directions don't make any sense.
Cream butter and sugars. Beat in egg and vanilla. Add dry ingredients and mix well. Add chocolate chips, grated Hershey Bar, and nuts. Bake on an ungreased cookie sheet at 375 for 6 minutes.
Yummers! These cookies are delicious, and I knew they would be. They are one of Grandma Allred's recipes. I seem to recall that they are the cookies she had on hand (probably in the freezer) last year when we were there for her surprise 80th birthday party that the Big Chubb fed to Baby Chubbs for breakfast. Grandma couldn't get over the fact that he being fed cookies for breakfast. As with the baked apple donuts, these are a must make recipe from this blog. Awesome cookies!
I did cook them a little longer that 6 minutes. I think our air bake cookie sheets don't get as hot as a conventional cookie sheet so it took longer. I also ground the nuts because I am not a lover of nuts in my baked goods, but ground they are delicious.
And, they are healthy because they have oatmeal in them! So don't hold back at just one....dozen. The full recipe makes a ton of them for you to enjoy continuously for the next few days.
Wow, two cups of butter. They must be good. I'm pretty sure I've had them before, and I'm pretty sure I'll make them when I have all the stuff.
ReplyDeleteP.S. Nice picture. I guess a good recipe means trying to take a better picture.
ReplyDeleteI was going to comment on the awesome picture, too.
ReplyDeleteI am always terribly disappointed when I bite into these and hit a nut. I can never get over that.
Ha ha. You would think it would be just as easy to write 2 c rather than double quote marks.
ReplyDeleteThat's why I ground the nuts, Janet. Less chance to bite into a large chunk of nut.
ReplyDeleteAnd, I thought I would try to take more artsy pictures of the things I post so I can pin my own recipes (if they are good) and there is a semi-decent picture for all my followers to see.
